Juicy Rack of Lamb with herbs, Quinoa with Shrimp and Roasted Brussels Sprouts with Onions and Cranberry! 
This month we are celebrating our anniversary. This time, for our third cooking date that we been having in our kitchen, I wanted to make my husband happy by preparing one of his favorite meals, rack of lamb. I had not eaten red meat since the Holidays but I couldn’t resist so I gave it a shot. It came out VERY tender, juicy and with a good flavor. Also the lamb gave an elegant touch to our special dinner. For those of you that like to eat lamb you would definitely enjoy this recipe. 
I have to say that my favorite part of this meal was the roasted Brussels sprouts. It was a great idea of cooking them with onions and cranberry. It gave a sweet touch to our romantic dinner!!! Just in case you did not know, Brussels sprouts improve stability of DNA inside of our white blood cells, help to prevent cancer and are an excellent source of vitamin C and vitamin K. I definitely see myself cooking this recipe for Brussels sprouts again very soon
The Quinoa with shrimp, as always, was delicious! I don’t think that I will never get tired of eating quinoa; I love the flavor and the nutritional benefits that it provides my body.
