Review - George Foreman Evolve Grill

I got the chance to review the George Foreman Evolve Grill about a month ago and was ecstatic to put it to use! When I received it I was still in school and was worried about what I was consuming. I'm not on any diet and eat what I wish because I'm so picky. Being in school and coming home late made things much worse, but putting the Evolve grill in the picture made things better! :)

I received the George Foreman Evolve Grill with a a few (of many) plates and a spatula and a drip tray. The plates I received was the crosshatch plate, deep dish plate and mini sliders plate set. The grill itself looks very attractive and features a digital time and thermometer control. This massive grill has 84 sq. in. of cooking surface.

The day we received the grill we immediately prepared some meat for burgers. The grill heats up very quickly and I like that when the time runs out on the digital screen, it does not turn off, that wold be a hassle. To cook the burgers we used the cross hatch plates and placed the drip tray right below the grill. As we turned a knob on the back to tilt the grill down, the fat from the burgers was constantly dripping into the drip tray. It was disgusting and amazing to see so much fat was in that trap, which is actually quite deep. The burgers cooked through well in about 4-5 minutes.

The plates are very versatile, as I can make eggs, bacon, casseroles, and even bake things like brownies in the deep dish plate and with the cross hatch plates cook bacon, grill chicken, grill all kinds of veggies, fruits, etc. Coming home from school the Evolve grill allowed me the option of cooking something quick, healthy and easy like grilled chicken with some veggies or even a quick grilled sandwich. For that reason alone the evolve has been a great addition to my life.

As I previously mentioned, the Evolve grill has a cooking surface of 84 sq. in., all non-stick and is extremely easy to clean; I find that a dish towel with some warm water will quickly clean the plates without having to remove them or put them in a dishwasher between major cleanings. Some cons I find with the Evolve grill is the cooking surface, I have a big family and more cooking surface would always be great. Also, I dislike that the drip pan doesn't somehow attach to the grill, as we cook the grill tends to move the drip pan making a little mess on the counter.

Overall, the grill has been a great addition to the family. The ease of cooking healthier foods in a short amount of time and not much effort has been great. It is very user-friendly and even my little 8 y/ brother grills his chicken nuggets here and there. The George Foreman Evolve Grill sells on their website for $129.99, but also sells at store like Target, Kohls and Amazon.com. You can connect with George Foreman on Facebook and Twitter for news on current and new products.

Zappos - Free Shipping & 365-Day Return Policy. Love It!

Have you ever ordered shoes online and had them at your front door the next? If you have, I'm sure you paid twice the amount the shoes cost in the first place. I have used Zappos to order shoes about 4 times now and every time I've had my shoes delivered next day.

The first two times I ordered from Zappos I needed to return them and get the same shoes half a size bigger. I called their Customer Service and they were honestly very nice and it felt more like I was talking to a friend than some CS rep. She let me know that there was a return slip, already pre-paid, with my shoes so I stuck the shoes back in the box they came from, put the return slip on and I received the shoes in the right size about 2 weeks later. This is because the return shipping isn't as fast as when they initially ship it to you. I didn't like the fact that when you return the shoes, they give you a refund and you practically have to re-order them. The only reason it took that amount of time was because I ordered the wrong size the first two time, the two after those my order cam just as fast, overnight or the day after that. Even with the long wait the first two purchases I adore Zappos.

I love to shop for DC Shoes, Vans, Converse and other shoes through their website. Their 2-day shipping is ALWAYS free and they have a 365-day refund policy. Zappos is known for selling shoes but they also sell beauty products, clothing accessories and more.

Our Christmas With Some Baho! :)

Our Christmas went well, my little sister was exstatic with her new pink Nintendo DSi, so was my other sister with her new orange one. My brother loved his night-vision binoculars, and the younger ones all got a bunch of video games for them all along with some toys and such. Not the greatest Christmas for presents, but with a new house to pay off, I'm not complaining. Especially since I got no presents :( I guess after you turn 22 your parents don't think you enjoy opening Christmas presents as much. I would've been content with some pajamas, pants or shoes. Well, my shoes are usually $100 - $200 so I understand lol. Santa didn't even bring me my Justin Beiber doll :( I'm starting to think he isn't real lol!

On another note, there is NO MEAT CRISIS, as i previously posted about. We were able to find the cut of meat (which cost about $50) and we were able to make some Nicaraguan Baho! That is my greatest present seeing as I asked for it for my birthday a couple months ago and didn't get it. I have won a couple of giveaways from some blogs so THANK  YOU GUYS, those are my presents :) And THANK YOU to my buddy Kerry who also sent me a present! :) I've shown it off to quite a few people!

Did everyone get what they wanted? I hope everyone had a great Christmas! Christmas for us our here sure is nothing compared to Christmas in Nicaragua, we throw fireworks in front of our house right when it hits 12:00 am and go hug and wish everyone in the neighborhood a Merry Christmas. Also, the parties and celebrations are a lot of fun. Sure seems more Christmas-like and less consumerist over than than out here in my eyes. I do love that there are people who still keep great traditions alive in the U.S. though :) I've seen many families with kids that throw tantrums when they don't get them those games, electronics or whatever it is they wanted, lets keep it traditional and continue to leave out cookies for Santa :)

"Cooking With Ai Mei" - Cebada con Piña Drink

Cebada is a typical drink we make in Nicaragua and can be found in many other Latin American countries. Cebada drink is made from Barley, which would make most think about beer or whiskey, however, cebada is a non-alcoholic drink. This particular drink we made is called Cebada con Piña (Barley w/ Pineapple) with a certain type of barley, but it would be difficult to find that here in the U.S. so we use the powder which comes in a bag. 

If you go out to your local grocery store, make sure you look for it in the Latin America or Ethnic aisle. Brand name doesn't matter, all cebada powder is the same and almost always is available in a pink bag.

Recipe:

■ Bag of Cebada Powder Drink Mix, any brand

■ Water, (depends on mix)

■ Sugar, (1½ - 2 cups)

■ Vanilla Extract, (1 teaspoon)

■ Pineapple Slices, (1 or 2 cans)

■ Cinnamon Sticks, (2 or 3)

Directions:

1. To make the drink we add whole allspice, cinnamon sticks and liquefy some pineapple slices. 
2. We then add water and the powder on medium-heat for about 40min. then pour and strain in a pitcher
3. Add vanilla extract and sugar to your liking.
   
4. Let is cool by letting is sit out, adding some ice cubes or putting it in the fridge. 

If you manage to find the Cebada Powder drink mix in your stores, it will tell you how much water to add. :)

After it has cooled you can add some rum and garnish it with a cinnamon stick, a pineapple or lime slice. The drink is absolutely delicious, I have grown up with it all my life. I love where my parents were born and raised, it has allowed me to have a unique culture with food and drinks to die for! They may sound exotic to others, but to me, they represent my comfort food/drink :)

ツ 

I hope you guys try this and enjoy it. If you've never tried it I bet you will love it! :) I hope to have more of these "Cooking With Ai Mei" posts in the future.
