Edmame Craisin Salad

 

You can find this basic recipe idea easily on the web, but just in case you haven't come across it before, it is yummy enough to repost here.

Chocolate Spinach Shake

We have enjoyed spinach shakes with fruit for a few years now but recently I felt the need to shake things up a little bit (haha).  My kids were wanting an ice cream shake and, as always, I was wanting to make it a little more healthful.  This is what we came up with.  They vary some depending on what we have in the fridge but we have been enjoying them for months.

Spanish Ravioli

We recently got together with some friends for homemade Spanish tapas.  Everyone was asked to bring 2 tapas dishes with an influence from Spain.  In anticipation of the evening, we scoured the internet for recipes and ideas.  We were not feeling very inspired with the recipes we were finding until we came across some Spanish Ravioli.  We LOVE making ravioli but have always stuck to very Italian flavors.  This was inspiring. There were only a couple recipes to be found and so we read some ideas from Spanish chefs and combined some different Spanish flavors to infuse the ravioli with a fiesta in every bite.
