Kale Chips: Healthy Alternative to Potato Chips

The truly are delicious! Heres another variation: instead of kale, try baby regular and curly Bok choy. In addition to tossing with salt and oil (or cooking spray, which I prefer), add into the mix paprika...not only will they taste like chips, but they'll have a barbecue flavored undertone as well. Great tasting and good for you too- score!

Are you sick of winter? What is your ideal summertime meal?

slice of whole grain bread, topped with sprouts, avocado, tomato, red onions, black beans and chickpeas! crispy, crunchy, soft and chewy. Admittedly a bit messy- but a delish light summer lunch! I'll take that with a good book, a hammock, and 70 degree weather ANYDAY! especially with this frigid coldfront we are having in NYC right now- boo!

I top my cereal with _____

My favorite breakfast..going on 4 years now...is cottage cheese mixed with maple syrup or honey, topped with grapenuts cereal and blueberries ( ok, I know you asked what we top our cereal with, but I flipped it and told you what I top with cereal!)YUM!

Truffles!

The verdict is in! I tried a truffle, and was not as WOWED as I thought I'd be. It could be because I bought a jarred truffle, in its juices. I think the way to taste it is dry and grated. Anyhow..thats how it went. Nonetheless, I will still have some truffle with my dinner tonight. After all, I did pay $6.99- I've gotta make it worth it!

Vegetarian Challenge

Some great and easy options: Black beans mashed with sweet potatoes- YUM! Also, if you like faux meat products, try LightLife "Chkn"- tastes like the real thing but made od soy :)
I've been a vegetarian for about a year or so now- couldn't be happier :)
Kudos to you!

Kale Chips: Healthy Alternative to Potato Chips

I did try frying them, like real potato chips, but I have to say I don't recommend it, unless somehow you can get the kale bone dry. http://felonykirsch.wordpress.com/2009/11/05/the-kale-chip-experiment/

Tiramisu. I got some "to go" last night and had it for breakfast. Do I feel guilty? Yes. Will I do it again, first chance I get? Yes.

SPICY TUNA ROLL - I swear I am addicted. I have to have a spicy tuny roll from one particular sushi spo every dayt. I crave it almost as soon as I get up ever day. Sick, huh!

My guilty pleasure is that I can't pass up a piece of cheescake. Any kind! Plain, fancy - as long as it is cheescake...new york style, any style - love it. Thanks for this opportunity!

Sweet Ticket Giveaway, Week 3: Pichet Ong's Guilty Pleasure Sweet

I am a sweet freak with very little guilt, though every now and again I get sad for no reason. The other day I ate a spoon of Duncan Hines fudge frosting right out of the container. It was all delicious and trans fatty. Does that count?

Sour-Patch Kids, Skittles, and other candies sold at movie theaters in large quantities, primarily to fourth-graders. I avoid making eye-contact as I make the purchase and then run off to the theater.

p.s. my girlfriend is dying for these tickets... please give them to me... please

Sweet Ticket Giveaway, Week 3: Pichet Ong's Guilty Pleasure Sweet

This is kind of embarassing, but we're supposed to be honest here right? Just to be clear, these are *guilty* pleasures...

1. Butterscotch Krimpets (eat them quickly so no one notices and then lick off any icing stuck to the plastic)
2. Real whipped cream straight...a little dash of vanilla, high peaks, and then into my mouth!
3. Swedish fish (wow...I don't think I've ever told anyone how I feel about swedish fish)

Desserts I would not mind being caught with and would like in front of me this instant:
Sprungli
warm chocolate chip cookies
hot fresh Krispy Kreme glazed donuts
mint chocolate chip ice cream

Unofficially and unanimously is strawberry ice cream, whether breyers/edys/turkey hills (the good kind). I'm supposed to take just one spoon; however, temptation gets the best of me as I often cheat by scooping more than one spoon.
