Brussel Spouts!

Today wasn't the hottest day. I had many, many frustrations throughout and was very happy to be OUT of the office, but the funk I felt still persisted. So, against better judgement, I skipped they gym and headed to the grocery store, picked up some essentials to cook up a feast. (And... on the way home a nice big bottle of Cab!) I had lots of veggies in my fridge that was about to go bad so, it was time to cook it up.

The Menu:
Stuffed Portabella Mushrooms
Roasted Brussel Sprouts
Sauteed Collard Greens

Okay, so I know you're thinking, 'brussel sprouts?! EWE!'. NO, these were fabulously delicious. It was the first time I'd ever had brussel sprouts and they were oh so yummy. All it took was some olive oil, salt and papper, maple syrup and 45 mins of baking... too good to be true. Mark, Cate, and Katie: I'll make them for you and you'll be completely suprised. I promise. You will thank me! Well, maybe not, but you'll be surprised for sure. :)

I forgot my camera at the office, but here is what the receipes looked like... minus the staging ;) All very healthy, very vegan! -pictures and recipies taken and cooked from http://www.chefchloe.com/

On a side, but very important note. Please join us in prayer for Mary B. to get better very soon. Katie and Mark: I'm sending you my love and prayers from Memphis.
