Pasta salad by pictures, step by step
As one picture tells more than 1000 words...
1: put to bowl some green lettuce, add a little olive oil, pinch of salt and pepper and mix. Put slices of tomato to bowl as picture.
2: add cooked pasta on lettuce.
3: add grated carrots and mushrooms (you can cook them few minutes in oil if you like and spice as you like).
4: add sliced cucumber and corn.
5: put on salad 2 boiled eggs, each cutted to 4 parts, add some salt and pepper (or other spices&herbs you prefer).
As you can see, salad is very simple but looks nicer when different incredients are layered by they own. And of course, using different vegetables you will get again new kind of salad.
1 can brown beans
1 tomato
1 tablespoon cumin
1 lemon
three garlic gloves
some chives
olive oil
Drain beans at least three time, never cook it in the can. Drain water and add lemon juice and crushed garlic. Mix and add cumin and mix. Finally put beans on a plate and add chopped tomatoes and chives with some olive oil.

......i didnt know there was such a thing as halal cheese...but im sure there are places where one could find them
Make sure that any cheese that you buy says "Suitable for vegetarians", or has a halal certified stamp from a recognised body, or equivalent, on the product label. If it doesn't have any of those, it may not be halal, and should be avoided. Commercially, the milk used for cheese tends to be split into curds (the cheese) and whey (the left over liquid) using rennet, an enzyme from calves stomachs, and these calves are most often not halal slaughtered. Nowadays though, quite a few companies are using other non-animal methods of splitting the milk, and they label their cheese as "suitable for vegetarians."
Just always make sure to read the label before you buy.

Extremely easy and quick to make This makes a delicious brownie for one in about a minute. 60 seconds makes a molten center brownie. 75 seconds make a uniformly done brownie. Careful not to overcook.
2 Tbs vegetable oil
2 Tbs water
1/4 tsp vanilla extract
dash salt
4 Tbs granulated sugar
2 Tbs unsweetened cocoa powder
4 Tbs all purpose flour
In a 12 oz coffee mug, add water, oil and vanilla. Whisk well.
Microwave for 60 to 90 seconds. Center should be slightly molten. Careful not to overcook.
Enjoy with a spoon. Careful brownie will be hot.
Tips: You can top it with whatever you like whipped cream with fresh strawberries and choc. syrup is really great with this. Its really yummy if you add a pinch of instant coffe to the recipe as well. If you dont have vanilla flavoring add mint or orange flavoring instead. Sorry for not posting a pic will do so next time I make it.
