Serve the meat platter with some snacks and salad on the sides. Made some Pumpkin and corn soup as well! Yums! 


Love the pork chop that we had this round. So soft and juicy grilling them with Ninjafoodi. It never dry out the meat as compared to panfrying it. 


Chicken chop so juicy. Goes so well with the BBQ sauce that my gal gave thumbs up! She total fan of it and say wants more of the sauce on her meat next time.


I love peeping into the Ninjafoodi while it is done cooking. Love the wonderful smell and the delightful sight of the food! Do you? Team Pork or Team Chicken?

3) Grill chicken chop with Ninjafoodi for 8mins, skin down, flip then grill another 8mins

Pumpkin & Corn Soup (Hot & Cold Blender)

 

Decided to make some soup to go along with our dinner tonite. I made grilled pork chop and chicken chop, serve along with some salads and snack platter. ❤️ 

Hub says taste like Mos burger corn chowder. A hint of ice cream to him as well. But overall I feel it does taste a bit like corn chowder with the faint corn taste, and when u nibble on the corn, it adds a texture to the soup. Quite like the taste of it. 


No-greasy stove top to clean up and grill everything in my Ninja foodi while the Blender is cooking my soup! All ready at the same time!

1/2 onion, chopped
2clove garlic
20g butter
800ml cream (i used whipping cream)
