Was there supposed to be a Spicy Peanut Sauce recipe with this? I hope so

and you just forgot it, because I was thinking that it sounded good and that

you meant to add it. : > )))

3 Ways to Dress Your Veggies

 

 

.3 Ways to Dress Your Veggies

 

Your veggies don't like to be naked. And what couture do they prefer? Try

a

little healthful-fat finery.

 

A bit of unsaturated fat can help your body better absorb the fat-soluble

nutrients in your vegetables. Here are three different looks to try:

 

1.Skip the fat-free ranch dressing. Instead, toss your greens with an

olive-oil-based dressing like balsamic vinaigrette.

2.Make your fat crunchy. Season peppers, corn, carrots, or squash with

salt,

pepper, and lemon juice, and then top with slivered almonds or toasted

sesame seeds.

3.Go Thai. Create this Spicy Peanut Sauce for dipping lightly steamed

broccoli and cauliflower . . .
