Oh dear, my granny was keen

That I should learn to love greens

So, when she began makin’

Them with hot sauce and bacon

It was conversion damascene!

Sweeten to Taste

Come on, have a rice cake

They’ve a really great crunch

Makes them easy to munch

Can be messy

Crumble into a bowl

Top with some cottage cheese

Yogurt mixes with ease

Just add raisins

Sweet Taties

Grateful to Charli Mills for the prompt of sweet potatoes this week. I love them any way I can get them, so here are a couple suggestions! Guess we’ll never go hungry hanging at the Carrot Ranch.

Many years ago, the group known as Weight Watchers had a recipe for what they called One Potato, Two Potato Salad. What made this different from the standard potato salad was the addition of sweet potatoes! While I don’t remember all the ingredients, I recall it tasted terrific.

Flash forward thirty years, and I meet a vegan chef who makes a potato salad using only sweet potatoes (she doesn’t eat white potatoes). This is also a tasty way to enjoy a picnic favorite. Hers uses tofu in place of eggs and a vegan mayo spread.

Both are good ideas!

Try to close it out

Putting your head in the sand

Works for a short time

Eventually you will find

Cupcake cravings will win out
