Getting ready for a little experimental grilling ...

Grilled Yams … a healthier twist on sweet potato fries

Loads of grilled veggies from the Davis Farmers’ Market: tomato, zucchini, squash, eggplant & crimini mushrooms

I just had a very pleasant quick post-work jaunt and am now enjoying a yummy smoothie.
Buttermilk Banana Berry Smoothie
2 servings
1 ripe banana
1/2 cup each frozen blueberries and raspberries
1 scoop vanilla whey protein
3/4 cup low fat buttermilk
a little agave syrup or honey to taste (optional)
a few ice cubes
Place all ingredients in a blender, cover, and blend until smooth.

Earned this dinner!
Fresh pineapple, cantaloupe, nectarine, raspberries, blueberries ... pure delight!
Nothing like a little chilled, fresh mango after a little jaunt on the bike.
Now, back to getting things organized after the move … OK, going to Costco first to get some dinner stuff … then back to work.
Here’s an idea for an easy, light, and refreshing dessert. Pick up some pre-made filo tartlet shells. Scoop about a tablespoon of frozen fat free vanilla Greek yogurt, and top with a fresh berry of your choice.
Viola – dessert is served!
These were very good with vanilla non-fat frozen Greek yogurt.
