This was my lunch today: sprout salad (tossed with a ceasar/poppyseed dressing blend) guacamole and some Fiesta crackers.. I also had lots of alfalfa sprouts, which I topped on the guacamole on the crackers.
*Eat sprouts as often as you can!!*
I have just decided within the last hour to have my recipe book done in color instead of black and white.. & am meeting with my design guy tomorrow.. (my Mom just convinced me of this on the phone, a few minutes ago) I had b&w ideas and now have to get my head around this change of plan.. and put a bunch of food pics together, at least I have lots of those, maybe enough.
The other day on the phone she asked me "Who's you favorite raw foodist of all?" and I responded quickly "You!" : ) She wasn't expecting that. one, but she is. .. and she told me I was her fav too. Lol She's great. I love my Mom.
ok, pics.. bbs

ReplyDeleteThe jicama fries look amazing. Your salad does, too! :) Thanks for the recipe!
ReplyDeleteMy pleasure Lauren! Jicama is a root vegetable from Mexico, it is used a lot throughout Central America, and also in China and Southeast Asia .. it can often be found in Asian groc stores and markets. I find it here occasionally in the large supermarkets but only sometimes.. I often have to go to an Asian store for it.
ReplyDeleteHappy Jicama hunting!!
