Enjoy FOOD!

Ok, so I talk a lot about Herbalife. It might seem as if I only drink the shake, the tea, the aloe vera water and eat their bars.

As a matter of fact, Herbalifelovers are also reall food addicts. I now enjoy awesome cooking more than ever, since I know that I can indulge much more, without it leading to weight gain.

My dad is having a dinner party on the 10th of june. Since he can only fry eggs, he asked me if I wanted to make some kind of nice menu with stuff everybody would like.

Well his friends are hamburger and fries-kind of people, so I will challenge their taste buds you wouldn't believe! With stuff mostly disliked by 'normal' people who aren't interested in culinary adventures.

As a starter I will make cute little tartelets of tomatoe, hazelnut pesto and...brussel sprouts. At this moment half of you are going 'what?! Noo, brussel sprouts, I hate those!'. Well the trick is that the tomatoe and hazelnut flavours trick you, so you barely notice you are eating brussel sprouts. Ha!

As main course I will make a salad of endive (the Dutch call it witlof), raisins, apples and perhaps pineapple, and lots of curry powder. I will serve it with a schnitzel and potatoe croquets.

The dessert will be either a Dutch custard trifle, or something healthier with sweetened yoghurt...I might stir down some Herbalife vanilla powder instead of sugar. Then they'll get lots of vitamins without even knowing it.

Can you see the Dutch theme through the evening? Pretty cool huh? I swear, I'm a reincarnated 50's housewife, I loooove dinner parties!

Next: table decorations and Dutch inspired board games!
