Success

Last night the "chips" and dip idea was a success!  YES.  Thanks Kamilee for the fantastic idea!

The Guacamole recipe that I followed was this:

                                                                                 2 ripe avocados

1/2 red onion, minced

2 tablespoons cilantro leaves, finely chopped

1 tablespoon lemon juice

1/2 teaspoon salt

dash of black pepper

Put in food processor or blender......

Then I mixed it with Cade's homemade spicy salsa.

YUMMM.

Lightly buttered the sandwich thins put in the oven under broil.....waited for them to be brown and super crisp.  Then dipped them in the guacamole.  Surprised how good it turned out.  It's probably not the healthiest recipe still, but hey, I'm going with it.

I made corn bread yesterday also and that wasn't bad either.  This was the recipe:

1 tablespoon butter
1 cup whole wheat pastry flour
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
1 1/2 teaspoon baking powder
1 teaspoon salt
3/4 cup yellow cornmeal
1 cup buttermilk
2 eggs
1 tablespoon honey
4 tablespoons melted butter, more for the baking dish

Preheat oven to 350°F and butter an 8-inch-square baking pan. Sift together flour, baking soda, baking powder, salt and cornmeal in a bowl. Set aside. In a small bowl, whisk buttermilk with eggs and honey. Whisk in melted butter. Mix wet ingredients with the dry until just combined. Pour batter into the pan. Bake 30 minutes until golden.

 And my smoothies look something like this:

Kale

Ta Da!

 

And today I don't think I'll be trying to do anything too impressive.  I'll probably just cook some zucchini and broccoli.  

So happy that things worked out yesterday though!
