Cantaloupe & Basil and Watermelon Berry Mint Sorbet

March 18, 2013 By Naomi Robinson | Bakers Royale 20 Comments

It’s been a while since I’ve taken a 7-day break from blogging. And you know what it’s clarified? It clarified that I obsess—a lot and I suffer from a little bad faith (and I don’t mean in the religious sense). That’s right, I had a week long battle with my annoying self.

In the background of that, I did a lot of Instagramming to try to combat the ebbing creativity. If you follow me there, then you know I go through these manic periods of shooting a lot to almost none. Which by the way, dear friends, PLEASE tell me when I write maniac instead of manic. Because I’m pretty sure given the two, manic is the lesser one. (Of course I’m viewing the two as wholly separate of one of another rather than one being a derivative of the other). For real—look, “manic” even has one less letter.

Alright, never mind the shoddy logic on that one, because here’s what I can admit and many of you know—I’m hyper critical of myself. Easy to admit, much harder to change. So last week’s long hiatus—you know where it led me? It led me here, rationalizing and explaining myself.

As I said bad faith—I’ll get there though, and when I do, that annoying self will be giving me a high-fiving goodbye. The upside of all this back-forth rattling around in my head is at least it’s getting too crowded for a creative funk, so yay to finding my way out of that one.

Hit the jump to Better Homes and Gardens’ blog Delish Dish for the recipe to the Cantaloupe & Basil and Watermelon Berry Mint Sorbet.

As always, if I can please ask you guys–if you are going to pin any of the images please do so from Delish Dish and not here, since the recipes reside over there. Thanks!

    When it comes to not trusting ourself I can say I rank pretty high…. Lol sometime I just don’t know how to stop my brain working so hard on criticizing me and let it work on being happy about me…. It seems like a never ending effort..
    This looks beautiful, as always I’m loving the pics, the colors, the light everything from scoops to sorbets…
    Heading to check the recipe.

Need an easy recipe that helps prevent food waste, Need an easy recipe that helps prevent food waste, and saves you time and money? What about a chance to win a $500 Walmart giftcard? I've got you covered then. 

This Kale and Sausage Strata is the kind of dish that uses up all those bits and pieces in the refrigerator. This means dig through the crispier and let’s make the most of what’s in there. For what you see here, I threw in two handfuls of kale, 2 cups sausage, some mushrooms and cheese. All things that came together for one cohesive dish. To boost the flavor, I used Morton® Coarse Kosher Salt because its coarse flakes makes it easy to pinch and allows me full control when seasoning a dish.
 
Yay, to doing more with Morton. 

Now I have a challenge for you. Join me and let's #erasefoodwaste. While you are at it, you can also enter @mortonsalt sweepstakes and win a $500 Walmart gift card or other Morton goodies! 
Rules for entry are: 
• Share your no food waste recipe, tag @MortonSalt and use the #DoMoreWithMortonSweepstakes hashtag. 
• Must follow @MortonSalt on IG to participate. Good luck! 
No purchase necessary 18+ Ends 12/31
