The Ultimate FoodBlog Bucket List: November ✌️
Can you believe that a brand new year is just 2 months away? 2021 has just flown by and it’s been full of food adventures (aka the best kind of adventures) for me! 😌
November will definitely not be any different. As we do every month, we’re here to tell you what you can do in November that will satisfy your belly! 😋
Make your own November Bones
November Bones (or ghadam tal-mejtin) are probably the most popular treat during this month. They’re basically figolli in the shape of a bone - because waiting an entire year to have a figolla is outrageous! 😱
Although making your own November Bones is quite a time-consuming process, Yesenia from Apron & Whisk has a lovely recipe for these treats that highlights the entire process! 🦴
If you’re not too keen on making them at home, you can probably find them at almost every bakery in Malta and even from home bakers who sell their yummy treats. 😍
Try out a new meat-free recipe
If you’re not yet aware of the high carbon footprint that goes along with consuming animal products, get cracking and do some research! It’s time to make a contribution to our beloved planet. 💚
There are so many meat-free recipes that are absolutely mouth-watering and easy to make. Check out our favourite ones here and try one out for yourself! 🤤
Make something with strawberries
Malta’s favourite fruit is finally in season! Everyone goes bonkers for strawberries on this island, especially the ones from Mgarr - we even have an entire festival dedicated to them. 🍓
Strawberries can be used in both sweet and savoury dishes, like this recipe for Strawberries and Cream Cheesecake or this Burrata with Balsamic Strawberries. 👌
Try out FoodBlog's fast and easy Garlic Prawn Pasta
Have you heard about our series of Fast and Easy Lunches? We know that time can be of essence, so we’ve come up with a series of recipes that are, well, fast and easy. 🤷
Our favourite one, so far is the Garlic Prawn Pasta - a quick and refreshing dish that will get you drooling. Check it out here. 🍝
Go out just for dessert
Let’s make dessert dates a thing. Meeting with a friend? Having a quick, casual meeting? Taking our grandparents out? Go for dessert. 🍩
We’ve got a list of the best places for dessert in Malta, so not knowing where to go can no longer be an excuse! 🍰
Have a platter party
I have to say, this was not actually my idea. I was inspired by Valentina Rossi’s crew who randomly assigned each other a ‘platter theme’ and they had to come up with a unique platter for that theme. 🤩
Valentina, for instance, got assigned the Dessert Platter, but there was also the Carb Platter, the Everything on a Stick Platter, the Dip Platter, the Healthy Platter, and the Cheese and Cold Cuts Platter. 🧀
You can obviously come up with your own list of platters - the more the merrier! - but isn’t this such a great idea? ✌️
Bonus: get a Bolt Food Exclusive
What’s a Bolt Food Exclusive, you ask? Well, all you need to know is right here! We’ve teamed up with Bolt Food to bring you unique menu items that you will only find on Bolt Food. 😏
So just watch our first episode, pick your favourite burger and get it delivered for your next night-in through the Bolt Food app! 🍔
Sounds like it’s going to be a fun month, am I right? Let us know what your plans are in the comments and have a fantastic November, folks! 🙌
