お久しぶりですね!!! Long Time No See ! ! ! I apologise for my absence BUT the past few months have been crazy crazy busy!!!!! I have been swamped with online University classes from the U of C. As well, the Canadian Invasion was awesome but Jam Packed with adventures, my Sister and her Boyfriend (now fiance) came to visit for a few weeks and 2 days after they left my Sickly Parents arrived in Okinawa after their Asian Adventure and stayed for 3 weeks. The visits were really great and after everyone left I was quite lonely, missing my family and expecting more of them to walk in the door at any minute. I recovered by burying myself in my studies and preparing for our move to Canada. Which I won't talk about right now....... I would rather talk about food. Yes, yumm, food. It's been getting hot again, so all I want to eat is salad and ice cream. So I made this delicious cold noodle salad called "Hiyashi Chuka" Beneath all the delicious veggies are cold Ramen Noodles. Add whatever veggies float your boat but the most common are: cucumber, tomato, sprouts. I splurged and added goya and mizuna. For protein this dish has lean chicken breast, sliced ham, and a cold half boiled egg. To top it off you can add your favourite dressing, oil & vinegar, lemon soy, or my favourite, sesame vinegar (ごまたれ). It was as delicious as it looks. Give it a try this summer on a hot day (for lunch or dinner) and you won't regret it!
Hopefully I won't be absent for too long...... I will try my best to give a blog shout out once in a while! xo J Kat
