Drunk Lime in the Coconut Chicken




Why is this a Foodgasm?

You put the lime in the coconut and....EAT it all up! Yes I took these iconic song lyrics and made a foodgasm. These flavors compliment each other really well, sweet and creamy with that sharp and refreshing lime you are just waiting for a foodgasm to happen! But instead of just any coconut flavor I added some Malibu Rum because I can! This is so easy to do too: just let the chicken marinate and grill it up! Then toss some lime zest on top- DONE! I also whipped some Lime Coconut quinoa/brown rice medley because this needed a nice accompaniment. It is summer and how perfect is this for summer? Tres Perfecto. Eat up my friends!

Bourbon Iced Tea with Lime



Why is this a Drinkgasm?

There is no better liquor for tea than bourbon: I quickly discovered this when I went to a bar in Brooklyn(yup real southern culture in Brooklyn of all places!)- I took one sip of their bourbon sweet tea and was hooked on bourbon since. So I knew I had to make my own! This time I used Earl Grey Tea, honey and lime. The strong Earl Grey with the sweetness of the honey and the tartness of the lime with some smooth bourbon and you got yourself a refreshing beverage for a warm summer night!

Beer Month's First Recipe Roundup is here with my Dos Equis Rice and Beans and much more!


 Why is this a Foodgasm?

Rice and beans is a nice simple dish, but for me I always have to take it to the next level, that's just how I roll. So it being Beer Month and all I figured why not add some cerveza to the mix and top it with some refreshing lime "sour cream", yeah it's really Greek yogurt (don't worry you won't be able to tell the difference). I wanted some extra protein so I topped with grilled chicken seasoned with chipotle powder. This is a quick and easy dish loaded with flavor and fiber! This is the first recipe party for beer month, see below for links to other AMAZING beer recipes by my #beermonthbloggers friends!

Spicy Red Curry Coconut Chicken Soup



Why is this a Foodgasm?

This is my own version of Tom Kha Gai, a Thai soup. I love Thai food, so I made my own spicy coconut curry soup! This is sour, sweet and spicy all in one! You got the creamy from the coconut, the spicy from the curry and a little sour in the end with the juice of 1 lime! This is redicu-licious!

The reason I made this- my husband had a cold. So I thought chicken soup, but why not this spicy Thai chicken soup?! This cleared out his sinuses! It was as if his nose were a faucet. The next day he felt sooo good he decided to insulate the basement! A win-win!
