Mussels
When I met Hubby, I had never had lobster, mussels and quite a few other things. Turns out we both love Mussels and they’re SO EASY to make. We usually just throw a bunch of stuff in a pot, but here’s an attempt at a recipe:
Steamed Mussels (by ME!)
1 pound of mussels
1 cup white wine
1/2 onion – chopped
3 cloves garlic – minced
Pour everything into a big pot. Be sure to throw out any mussels that are already opened.
Cover pot and put burner on med-high. When mussels are all opened, they are done. Serve with wine sauce.

Gorgeous spring/summer salad!
absolutely refreshing!
Yum, I love sweet salads!
That is a gorgeous salad. Have you thought about adding some mango to it?
I have a recipe similar with mangos and strawberries and it is delicious. I have made it with strawberries alone and it was just as good, though.
I have not thought to add mango to this salad. Sounds intriguing.
It’s perfect! And we’re sharing your lovely work on the FB page, Twitter and our website today! Thank you for sharing such a great recipe. I absolutely love it!
