I'm excited just thinking about my leftovers...My only issue was that the dressing was too lemony, I don't know if it needs the juice of 1 whole lemon, I'll probably do 1/2 next time.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11944565.post-12530106584792564682009-02-26T15:50:00.000-06:002009-02-26T15:50:00.000-06:00Hi Alanna, Kirsten shared a goodly portion with us...Hi Alanna, Kirsten shared a goodly portion with us, and it is delicious.

I think I had an allergic reaction to some tahini that had a tree nut allergy warning, but I bought the orange and brown Joyva tahini that doesn't have a tree nut warning, but I think I had a reaction to it.

I am soo glad that A Veggie Venture is a resource for you, that's exactly what I'm aiming for, not just 'new' recipes but making all the recipes in the archives (about 1000 these days) easy to find, so that you CAN find what you want. Thank you so much for taking the time to let me know, it is sooo appreciated.Alanna Kellogghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12869948243694610558noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11944565.post-36954259686624613372009-02-17T16:58:00.000-06:002009-02-17T16:58:00.000-06:00This isn't specifically about this recipe, just a ...This isn't specifically about this recipe, just a general thank you! I've been getting a "harvest box" of organic, mostly locally grown, fruits and veggies for a few months now. My subscription is for delivery every two weeks, but because I'm single that still sometimes leaves me with a bunch of one kind of veggie to use up before it spoils or the next box arrives. This site has been a life saver -- or more accurately, a veggie saver. I can always find something new and original to do with the plethora of produce I'm blessed with.
