Emy's quick and easy #breakfast ~~> Brunch with a smile!

Hello !

¡ Hola!

School is out and breakfast is the most important of all. Most of the time it is the meal that the children are so particular about, as mom, we have to be just as particular about the nutritious they need to eat.

Se terminan las clases y el desayuno es la comida más importante de todos. Mayoría de las veces es la comida que los niños son tan particulares, como mamá, tenemos que ser apenas tan particular sobre el nutritivo que necesitan para comer.

We have been trying to prepare some quick and easy breakfast since last weekend and trying to make the tasty, looks good and perhaps even ask for more. Do you have an issue with breakfast in the morning?

Estamos tratando de preparar algúnos desayuno rápido y fácil desde de la semana pasado y tratando de hacerlo sabroso, que parece bien y quizás hasta pida más. ¿Tiene un problema con el desayuno en la mañana? 

There are days that breakfast becomes brunch because the sleeping beauties awakes late, but these are selected days. Here is one of our favorites.

Hay días que el desayuno se hace el desayuno-almuerzo porque las bellas durmientes despiertan tarde, pero éstos son días seleccionados. Aquí está uno de nuestros favoritos.

Here we have 

Aquí tenemos

Fried eggs with tomatoes, mushrooms and onions, refried beans, shredded cheese, toasted baguette and a tasty pepper sauce. Reminds me of the days my mom would make us a nice breakfast with a nice slice of ham. 

Huevos fritos con tomate, cetas y cebolla, frijoles refritos, queso, baguette tostada y una salsa sabrosa. Me recuerda los días que mi mamá nos haría un buen desayuno con una buena tajada de jamón.

Suggestions:

Sugerencias:

Fried eggs can be made with whatever the child likes or does not like. It can be mixed into the egg which will be hidden and they may like it. Do not put chunks of what they do not like, just tiny pieces. 

Huevos fritos pueden hacerse con lo que el niño le gusta o no le gusta. Se puede mezclar en el huevo que se ocultará y puede gustarle. No coloque trozos de lo que no les gusta, sólo pequeñas piezas.

There are many ways to do your fried eggs. We would do eggs with a mushrooms, eggs with bits of ham, eggs with bits of bacon, eggs with sweet pepper, eggs with potatoes, eggs with mushrooms or eggs with all mixed together. It really depends on how the mom feels that day. 

Haríamos huevos con setas, huevos con trozos del jamón, huevos con trozos del tocino, huevos con la pimienta dulce, huevos con patatas, huevos con cetas, o huevos con todos mezclados juntos. Realmente depende de cómo la mamá siente ese día. 

We will be sharing our breakfast with you and if you would like to join, we can create a blog hop. Let me know:). You can also find some of our breakfast here.

Vamos a estar compartiendo el desayuno con usted, y si usted le gustaría formar parte de él, podemos crear un blog hop. Permítame saber: ). Puedes encontrar mas desayunos aqui.

Have a wonderful day and let the kids gets some exercise.

Tenga un día maravilloso y dejar que los niños se hace algo de ejercicio.

Spring & Summer Quesadillas with Real California Cheese #VivaCADiary# ad #Grilling

Disclosure: I am being compensated and is in collaboration with Latina Bloggers Connect and the California Milk Advisory Board.

Hello All,

Hope you are having a Wonderful Wednesday!

Espero que tenga un miércoles maravilloso ! 

At this time of the year we are usually planning our next vacation to visit our Mexican family. I can almost smell the delicious grilled quesadillas filled with chewy melted cheese and smokey honey ham.

En este tiempo del año planeamos por lo general nuestras próximas vacaciones para visitar a nuestra familia mexicana. Yo casi puedo oler las deliciosas quesadillas a la parrilla llenadas de masticable queso fundido y jamón ahumado de miel.

I have seen this particular cheese commercial with the cow for ~>Real California Milk or Real California Cheese and was curious. So I went searching for it. Wow,it was a chore, I could not find this brand. Well, returned home and did my research about Real California Milk or Real California Cheese. Amazing what I found out about this seal. I learnt that there is a list of cheese processors who are authorized to use the seal. It is important to add that all cheesemakers undergoes a special inspection by an advisory board on a regular  basis as new cheese are being made.

He visto comerciales con el queso de vaca ~ >Real California leche o queso y era curioso. Así que me fui de una búsqueda. Wow, era una tarea, no he podido encontrar esta marca. Bueno, regresó a su casa e hice mi investigación sobre California leche o queso. Increíble lo que me enteré sobre este sello. Aprendí que hay una lista de procesadores de queso que están autorizados a usar el sello. Es importante agregar que todos queseros se somete a una inspección especial por la junta consultiva de forma regular como nuevo queso se están llevando a cabo.

I also found out that many of these brands are being sold at our local store and major supermarket. It is interesting that Real California  Milk or Real California Cheese is natural and being made exclusively by California milk. Many California dairy products are sold nationally. 99% of California dairies are family-owned.

También me di cuenta de que muchas de estas marcas se venden en nuestro almacén local o supermercado. Es interesante que la verdadera Leche de California o queso es natural y que se compone exclusivamente de leche de California. Muchos productos lácteos de California se venden a nivel nacional. 99% de las lecherías de California son de propiedad familiar.

One name to mention that I know of is Cacique. This brand is well known and is delicious in any size or shape. I must say, I was surprised by the types of cheese there are and have been looking for some of these types of cheese. Very educating as my research is rather helpful and will help me to make  a variety of my favorite Mexican dishes. There are many super-delicious recipes that I have made using cheese with this seal for the evening in spring and quick to make in the summer.

Un nombre que hay que mencionar que yo sepa es Cacique. Esta marca es bien conocida y es delicioso en cualquier tamaño o forma. Tengo que decir que me ha sorprendido por los tipos de queso que son y  ha estado buscando algunos de estos tipos del queso. Mi investigación es algo útil y me ayudará a hacer una variedad de mis platillos favoritos. Hay muchas recetas super-delicious que he hecho usando el queso con este sello para la tarde en primavera y rápido para hacer en el verano.

One of my favorite dish that I am making is the grilled quesadillas. I can remember this as a breakfast dish in Mexico. At home, I make this dish for lunch or dinner. Have not made this tasty grilled quesadillas in a while with all the trimmings.

Uno de mi plato favorito que hago es quesadillas asado a la parrilla. Puedo recordar esto como un plato del desayuno en México. En casa, hago este plato para almuerzo o comida. No se han hecho este sabroso quesadillas a la parrilla en un rato con todas las adornos.

#Giveaway Manna Bread "Sprouted for LIfe" Enter to #Win EXPIRED

Sorteo Pan de Manna  "Sprouted for Life" Entra para Ganar!!!

Manna Organics Bread, LLC

We always love eating different types of bread whenever we go to Spain and/or Mexico. We enjoy the natural flavor and there is such a large range that we don’t actually eat the normal bakery bread.

Siempre nos gusto comer diferentes typos de pan cuando vamos a España o a México. Nos encanta los sabores naturales y alli hay una variedad tan grande que casi nunca comemos el pan de la panaderia local.

I received a packaged a couple weeks ago and was excited when I saw what it contained.

It had 5 packs of different breads: Cinnamon Date, Millet Rice, Carrot Raisin, Sour Dough (Bavarian style.) Excellent!!!

Recebí un paquete hace unas semanas y estuve muy excitada cuando vi lo que contuvo. Habia cinco paquetes de diferente tipos de panes: Canela con Datiles, Arroz Mijo, Pasa de Zanahoria, Masa Agria estilo Bávaro. Excellente!

Manna Organics Bread is a Manna Organics, LLC is a family owned and operated bakery, located in Lisle, IL. which was started in 2007 and also acquired Nature’s Path's sprouted Manna Bread®division.
 Manna Organics Sprouted breads produced their artisan Bavarian style sourdough breads, certified Gluten Free Organics Breads, trail mixes, and also offer bulk organic ingredients.

Manna Organics Bread is a Manna Organics, LLC es una familia panadería poseída y hecha funcionar, localizada en el Hilo de Escocia, Illinois que fue comenzado en 2007 y también la Maná echada del Camino de la Naturaleza adquirida Bread®division. 
La maná Organics Echó los panes produjo sus panes de pan fermentado de estilo bavaros de artesano, Gluten certificado Panes Organics Libres(Gratis), mezclas de rastro, y también ofrezca a bulto ingredientes orgánicos.

These bread are made with 100% sprouted whole grain (high fiber) and unleavened (yeast free.) 

Estos panes están hechas con 100% de granos germinados entero (alto contenido de fibra) y de sin levadura (levadura libre)

I was a bit skeptical when I was told it is different from the ordinary bread. The first one opened was the Millet Rice, it was moist and you can actually taste the little millets, was scrumptious! We had a bit of jelly on it and we enjoyed our evening snack. It is good to have it in the refrigerator and cut when you want a bite, it is preserved longer.

Era un poco escéptico cuando me dijeron que es diferente del pan común. ¡El primer se abrió era mijo Arroz, era húmedo y usted realmente puede probar pequeño mijo, era riquísimo! Tuvimos un poco de jalea en él y disfrutamos de nuestro aperitivo por la noche.  Es bueno tenerlo en la nevera y cortar cuando desea algo, se conserva más tiempo.

We needed a sweet snack so we decided to open one that was sweet and we opened the Cinnamon Date. This one was cake like and my daughter had it as is, we decided to toast it. It was delicious. We have this for breakfast most morning with a bit of Swiss or Manchego cheese.

Necesitábamos un bocado dulce, así que hemos decidido abrir uno que era dulce y abrimos la fecha de canela. Este pastel como era y mi hija tenía tal como está, decidimos tostarlo. Es delicioso. Tenemos este desayuno mayoría mañana con un poco de Suiza o queso Manchego.

We had the Bavarian Sour Dough with Swiss or Manchego Cheese and added nutty flavor. This reminds me of the bread we enjoyed so much in Spain. It felt like “home away from home” when we had this particular bread with our coffee or tea. It is delicious!

Teníamos la Masa Ácida bávara con suizo o Queso Manchego y añadimos el sabor de nuez. Esto me recuerda del pan que disfrutamos tanto en España. Pareció “a casa lejos de la casa” cuando teníamos este pan en particular con nuestro café o té. ¡Es delicioso!

Well, when I opened the Carrot Raisin, I was like this is nice, it was moist and more like a cake but that did not change the taste. This is another favorite of ours and enjoyed the texture and happy to taste the flavor yet not overpowering. It is great to eat more but consoling to know it is healthy food.

Así, cuando he abierto la zanahoria pasas, yo pensaba "esto es bueno", era húmedo y más como un pastel, pero eso no cambia el sabor. Esto es otro favorito nuestro y disfrutó de la textura y contento de probar el sabor aún no agobiante. Es estupendo comer más, pero consolando para saber que es la comida sana.

We enjoyed the texture and flavor found in the bread. You can feel and taste the nuts and grains which are easily digested. Surprisingly, you can taste the natural sweet fruity taste which also contributes to the moistness of the bread.  We had a slice of one of these bread for our snacks as it is healthy and can be eaten as it is or can be eaten with cheese or jelly. It is good for a healthy diet. Instead of eating sweet bars, a slice of any of these bread serves the purpose as it is fulfilling and so nutritious.

Disfrutamos de la textura y el sabor que se encuentra en el pan. Puede sentir y degustar las tuercas y granos que son de fácil digestión. Sorprendentemente, se puede degustar el sabor afrutado dulce natural que también contribuye a la humedad del pan. Tuvimos un segmento de uno de estos pan para nuestros bocadillos ya que es saludable y puede consumirse tal cual o puede consumirse con queso o jalea. Es bueno para una dieta saludable. En vez de comer barras de dulces, una rodaja de cualquiera de estos pan sirve para el propósito como es tan nutritiva y satisfactoria.

As I mentioned once, my family is vegetarians and love organic or natural food.  This really made a hit as they can also be very particular with their food.

Como mencioné una vez, mi familia es vegetarianos y amor alimentos naturales o ecológicos. Esto realmente hizo un éxito(golpe) aunque ellos también pueden ser muy particulares con su comida.

De repente senti que salio del cuarto pero no le dí importancia. El simepre le hace su desayuno por los domingos. After 10-15 minutes, I felt a shake. "Mommy, we made breakfast for you, we love you so much!" Despues de 10 ó 15 minutos senti que me tocaron. "Mamá hicimos tu desayuno, te queremos mucho!"

 It was Sunday and they wanted to make mommy feel special, well they were successful, it did make me feel special and happy!

 Era un domingo sin importancia y querian hacerme sentir especial, pues lo lograron, me hicieron sentir importante y feliz! It sure was a complete breakfast with tea, toast bread, fry egg, and applesauce They are both my darlings! They know how to pamper mommy!
Me dieron un desayuno completo con te, pan tostados, huevos estrellados y puree de manzana. Ademas de eso, ella me sirvio en su plato de princesa!

For the sweet tooth - Para los que les gusta el dulce

 Yogurt Delish - Delicia de Yogur

Today, I will share with you one of our favorites natural dessert.
Yogurt is one of our main form of making desserts. We use it by mixing it with different kinds of fruits that is in season as well as different types of nuts and raisins.  For summer, it is a beautiful rainbow of colors since there are various types of fruits available.

We normally mix the greek natural yogurt with vanilla flavored but there are times that we use only natural yogurt with honey and a combination of  various fruits. Sometimes for breakfast, we would have plain yogurt and cheerios with honey and nuts.

Hoy, voy a compartir contigo uno de nuestros dulces favoritos.
Yogur es uno de los ingredientes mas comunes para hacer dulces. Lo usamos mezclandolo con varios tipos de frutas de estación. y con varios tipos de nueces y pasitas. En  el verano, hay un arcoiris de colores ya que hay varios tipos de frutas del tiempo donde escoger.

Normalmente mezclamos yogur natural griego con el de sabor vainilla y a veces usamos el natural con miel y una combinacion de frutas. En otras ocasiones, para el desayuno, hacemos yogur con cheerios, miel y nueces.

Ingredients:

1 cup vanilla yogurt
1 cup of  natural  plain yogurt
1 cup strawberries
1 cup melon
1 cup banana
1 cup blue berries
1/4 cups  peanuts (any kind of nuts, your choice)

Cinnamon (optional)

Method:

Mix both yogurts together in a dish.  You can use the fruits already chopped up at the local stores or you can peel or cut the skin of the fruits (banana and melon.) Chopped the fruits in cubes and put them in a cup layered with yogurt or all the fruits in a dish and yogurt on top and layer with nuts of your choice and/or with cinnamon.

yogur con fruta de ensalad

En Español

Ingredientes:

1 taza de yogur de sabor a vainilla 
1 taza de  yogur natural
1 taza de fresas
1 taza de melocoton
1 taza de platano
1 taza de arándanos
Canela (opcional)

Metodo:

Mezcla los dos yogures juntos en un tazón. Puedes usar las frutas ya cortadas de la tienda local o si prefieres, corta las frutas en pequeños trozos y ponlos en un vaso con el yogur de forma que las frutas queden entre dos capas de yogur. Tambien se puede servir de la siguiente manera: poner las frutas en un plato hondo y agrega el yogur al gusto, nueces y un poco de canela.
