Because I usually create and modify my recipes as I make them over the week, I don’t always have link to the recipe available right away, which is kind of a bummer. I have been trying to retroactively add recipe links to posts, though, as I do them. If you click on Menu [5] you can see a list of all my menus, with blogged recipes marked in green. Also, I decided to add links to the recipes I’ve posted from last week so that you can enjoy them now. As you can see, I’ve got tons of posts on the drawing board, and I’ll add links here as soon as they’re up. Hope this helps! Have an inspired cooking week! -Sea
Monday: Vietnamese
Coconut Crepes with crunchy veggie filling with sweet chili sauce [6] (tasty but needs some tweaking)
