Announcing WBB-July '08

WBB-Weekend Breakfast Blogging was started by the gorgeous, talented doctor and nutritionist Nandita from Saffron Trail to popularise breakfast among food bloggers around the globe. This time I am getting the privilege to host it in Monsoon Spice. Thank you dear Nandita, for this wonderful opportunity.

Without much delay and unwanted Gyan (which I am good at giving ;) from me, let me come straight to the point. For this edition of WBB, your challenge is to cook anything with summer fruits and vegetables. Yes, the theme is WBB-Summer Feast. Go to your town/city’s Farmer’s Market and pick fresh season’s produce and make your favourite breakfast or brunch. Combine these summer fruits and vegetables with any ingredients of your choice and create something special which you and your family love. Choice of summer fruits and vegetables, the recipe, ingredients, method etc is entirely left to you. It can be something which you cook quite often or something which you came up by accident. It can be something that reminds you of your childhood days or happy time spent with your family and friends in summer. Cook anything your heart desires and blog about it. Sky is the limit!
