When Shane isn’t around for dinner, I sometimes like to indulge my inner hippie by eating something really earthy-crunchy and totally healthful. Tonight was one of those nights.
I toasted up a quesadilla for Rose, defrosted some baby cubes for Sid, and made myself a big salad of dark greens, avocado, asparagus and brown rice with miso dressing. Roasted sweet potato would have been a good addition, but we’re out.

2 tablespoons white miso
2 tablespoons tahini
1 tablespoon honey
2 tablespoons apple cider vinegar
3 tablespoons olive oil
My dinner victory last night:
me: “Frankie, you are having salad with dinner, and i am going to add one new vegetable to it so you choose: tomatoe? or avocado?”
Frankie “avocado”
Granted, “a salad” for frankie now consists of cut up cucumbers, cut up carrot and avocado. no dressing.
but he eats it all, so who is more of a hippie now?!?!?!
just kidding.
