Recipe Question: Tropical Egg Salad
Melissa from Melissa’s Jewelry and Gems asked a recipe question about the Tropical Egg Salad
Melissa Asked:
I have never tried anything quite like this. Will it taste good with any fruit, or just the apples, and pineapple?
Ms Recipe’s Answer
You could try it with any fruit, but I suggest you use at least one fruit that has a texture such as the apples. Here’s some ideas: pears, strawberries, peaches, bananas or nectarines. I love to experiment with food which makes me a bit of a mad scientist in the kitchen.

A reader asked a question about my post for Groovy Reuben Soup.
hello hello. hmm. this one seems to be easy to do. however, i want to ask… what is sauerkraut? quite puzzled about that.
Ms Recipes Answer:
Sauerkraut is actually Fermented Cabbage. You can check out a bit of the history and pictures of sauerkraut at Wikipedia
A few readers said someone in their home doesn’t like sauerkraut. If they don’t like sauerkraut you can cook the sauerkraut with some butter, salt, and pepper in a saucepan. Just cook enough on the side and add it to you soup bowl.

Dorothy L of Women’s Self Esteem Blog asked me a question:
Hello Mrs. R…would you happen to have a recipe for the fabulous ‘Ice Mocha coffee’ that they serve in Star bucks and a few other places?
Ms Recipe’s Answer:
Although, I don’t have Starbucks recipe for Ice Mocha Coffee, I do have a few tricks up my sleeve for economical flavored coffee.
You can do any of these to jazz up the taste of your coffee. I don’t recommend trying them all at once.
1. Pour boiling hot water into your coffee maker.
2. Sprinkle cinnamon over coffee grounds.
3. Pour one cap of vanilla extract over coffee grounds.
4. Pour a couple of drops of mocha, raspberry, peppermint, almond, cinnamon, coconut, or hazelnut extract. You can adjust the amount of extract according to taste buds.
5. Sprinkle a little salt on the coffee grounds to take the bitterness out of the coffee.
6. Let the flavors soak for 5 minutes prior to brewing your pot.
You can buy the extracts at your local grocery stores, specialty stores or online.

Here are a few tips on choosing watermelon or cantaloupes:
A watermelon with a white bottom is not ready to be eaten.
A cantaloupe with a green tinge under the netting or green at all is not ready to eat.
A cantaloupe stem that smells like a cantaloupe is ready to eat. The stem is the end that has the deepest indention.
You should not buy a cantaloupe with multiple soft spots
