Cilantro
Cilantro/Coriander. Love it or hate it?
I recently came across a delicious cilantro chutney product that I ended up going through much faster than any condiment I've ever owned. It may perhaps be the first since Grey Poupon that actually was used in its entirety prior to meeting the expiration date. I mixed it with rice, pasta, soups, etc.It's a Wrap
I always like to have good tortillas on hand; with them I can turn virtually any combination of ingredients into a fun and easy meal.
Today I combined steamed zucchini, avocado, cherry tomatoes, hummus, and cilantro in side of an Ezekiel Sprouted Grain tortilla. I pictured it open-faced as well so you can get an idea of what was inside.
Chopping Herbs
Ok Im usually pretty handy with a knife and my chopping skills are not bad. I recently bought fresh Itlain parsley and cilantro (:drool:). When I was making my dinner tonight I decided to add some of these to my pasta.Salmon with Lime and Cilantro & Sesame Asparagus
If you've never tried salmon with lime, you should! It's a great flavor pairing and one that I really enjoy. I used to have a recipe for Salmon with lemon and limes, but somehow, I seem to have lost the recipe.
