Dinner was kale, hummus, chickpeas, sunflower seeds, tomatoes, avocado and onion, on toasted naan. Kind of a rehash of last week’s kale, hummus & avocado wrap. Actually I liked it better than the wrap, the way it is more like a sandwich. We also had fresh edamame from the farmers market. So much better than frozen!!!
Sunday we had roasted chickpea and cauliflower tacos. It was the last cool day we’re going to have for awhile, and thus the last day to comfortably have the oven on. Chickpeas and cauliflower are tossed with oil, chile, and cumin, then roasted in the oven. I should have made the whole recipe instead of half because everything shrunk up quite a bit.
The roasted goodies are served as taco filling, with a cilantro lime “crema” (greek yogurt). I like how the chickpeas make the filling more substantial than just veggies.
August 4th is National Chocolate Chip Cookie Day. Cookie & Peeets coffee for me, sweet potato dog treat for Percy.
Lastly, over the weekend I tried the Thai grilled peanut butter sandwich that I’d seen on TV. It has peanut butter, orange marmalade, curry powder, Thai basil, and Sriracha sauce. It’s an interesting combination but when it’s all grilled and melted together, somehow it works.
