Strawberries

 

Fresh strawberries are always a good snack to have around. We spend a little extra for organic. Which such porous skin, strawberries can readily absorb pesticides that washing can’t remove. Our thinking is we spend more on good ingredients and just eat less food. A word of warning, if you’re going to chop them on a wooden cutting board arrange the remnants artistically so it will leave a red heart-shaped stain.

Annie Chun’s Vegan Miso Soup

I haven’t tried her soups yet, but Michael seems to like them.  He says they’re good in a pinch for a quick lunch or snack. The noodles are packed in an air-tight package which keeps them moist—unlike the dry noodles you find in most instant soups. As a bonus, the bowl is made of an Earth-friendly, biodegradable material. Hats off to Annie Chun.

Cucumber Salad

Easy peasy. Sliced cucumbers, red onion, white vinegar, teaspoon of sugar and salt to taste.
