Guest guest Posted October 19, 2006 Report Share Posted October 19, 2006 Hi Monica, I just was asking about the sea veg, since you had mentioned it along with celery and carrots. M.A. Monica Eastburn <monicaeastburn wrote: I used kombu(brown algae) in the lentils. The quiche was plain ole' spinach, nothing fancy. Sea veg in quiche-hmmm. That makes me want to experiment. Wonder if you could soak the sea veg in hot water for awhile, then use it the same way you would spinach. I am going to try it~ Hey, these muffins with a pumpkin spice latte would be heaven:) I may have to run down to SB when dh gets home from school.mmmmmmm.
