VIETNAMESE COFFEE

One of my favorite parts of dining on Vietnamese cuisine is the rich, sweet flavor of a Vietnamese coffee. At one point in time, I had a real Vietnamese coffee drip maker (update I just got a new one) and tried my hand at making these sweet and potent cups of coffee. Mine were never ever as good as the restaurant version. There also is a preferred coffee Cafe Du Monde to use for classic results.

COFFEE GRANOLA

Loving Vietnamese coffee lead me to a way to flavor granola with the same creamy, coffee sweetness. How? You begin with basic coffee ingredients of sweetned condensed milk and coffee. Next the basic granola components of rolled oats, cashews, pecans and pumpkin seeds. Flavor with cinnamon and cardomom. Melted coocnut oil is also mixed in with the granola mixture, completed.

Bake the granola on a standard half sheet pan lined with parchment paper or silicone baking mat. Bake the granola, watching over it during the 40 minute or so bake, giving it a mix a few times during baking for even browning. That’s it. You favorite coffee is now in your breakfast bowl. Top with sliced fresh fruit and Vanilla Almond Malk. Coffee is served. Store the granola in a glass sealed jar. Good Morning!

Vietnamese Latte Granola

Good Morning! Coffee and granola for breakfast, together in one bowl. Here’s the newest little jewel Vietnamese Latte Granola. Enjoy!

VIETNAMESE LATTE GRANOLA

I love both Vietnamese coffee and granola, so I began thinking of a way to combine the two in one bowl. Vietnamese Latte Granola is simple and fulfills both breakfast cravings. Since I have so many granola recipes on my blog, (just search granola to find them all) I used the basic technique and added some espresso powder and sweet condensed milk, both part of Vietnamese coffee. I love Vietnamese coffee, but still need to purchase a traditional coffee drip.

SIMPLE INGREDIENTS

The key to this latte granola is the ground espresso and condensed milk, those are the two flavors present in Vietnamese Coffee. A collection of seeds and nuts are added to rolled oats. Off the oven to crisp things up. Allow to cool before storing the granola in sealed glass jar.

GREAT GRANOLA

The coffee flavor is not overpowering, so the granola pairs well with fresh fruits. On this bowl I used fresh blueberries and bananas, but just top with your favorite fruits.

Green Goddess Salad with Crunchy Granola

Green Goddess Salad with Crunchy Granola | Bijouxs Little Jewels

Green Goddess Salad with Crunchy Granola is a light and lovely salad with the surprise crunch from seeded granola. Salads are always a little jewel from the Bijouxs Recipe Membership.

GREEN GODDESS

Salads are at the top of my list for meal-makers and starters. I am always keeping my eyes out for new ways with the salad bowl.

This salad is a fresh take on the Green Goddess salad, with a much lighter than usual green dressing. I enjoy the fresh herbs, avocado oil and Dijon mustard that join for the dressing. I used Little Gem lettuce a favorite, along with leaves of red radicchio for color & flavor.

CRUNCHY SEEDED GRANOLA

The surprise here is a crunchy granola topping in lieu of the usual croutons. A simple seeded granola is baked with seeds; pumpkin seeds, sunflower seeds, flax seeds and rolled oats. Spiced with red chili flakes and honey for a sweet-spicy kick.
