foodie blog #10

Ive spent the entire semester looking at food on social media. Ive looked at the positives, the negatives, what makes people so famous, and what it takes to make a great food post.

I feel as if by now I know all the ins and outs of the food blogosphere and have decided to maybe try my shot at making my own food accounts. I've thought about it a lot and while restaurants are dope and the food is always so beautiful and amazing, I think I'm going to try my hand at making my own recipes at home, or combining different ones and posting about it. I want to do all natural food and pretty healthy so it has less of a negative impact on people.

So today I have my first post!

The other day I was stumbling upon Pintrest and noticed a post that said different vegetarian steaks. I'm a vegetarian so this really intrigued me! One of them was grilled watermelon and my mouth literally started watering. Now that its summer, or at least feels like it, I've been craving fresh, light, and delicious salads. So I clicked on it to see how you grilled a watermelon and the rest is history.

Here's the recipe that I came up with:
-Arugula
-2 Slices of Watermelon
-Olive Oil
-1/4 cup of chick peas
-1/2 cup of cherry tomatoes
-Goat cheese
-Balsamic vingar

Dressing:
-1/4 cup of olive oil
-a little garlic
-half a squeezed lemon
-salt and pepper to taste

-I marinated the watermelon with olive oil and pressing it in our George Forman for 7 minutes
-I laid out the arugula in at the bowl and put the chick peas and halved cherry tomatoes on top
-Then, I put the grilled watermelon on
-Next, I sprinkled goat cheese and drizzled a little balsamic
-Lastly, I drizzled some of the dressing on top

and.....

BON APPETIT!
