Send a recipe, get free stuff

THERESA: I've just received a shipment of www.bike-to-work.com water bottles, each containing a Clif bar (April doesn't like these, but I think they're tasty.) So how about if we do a recipe swap today? Share a healthy recipe to serve at a Memorial Day picnic this weekend, and I'll e-mail you to get your address so I can send you one of these items. I'll let you know when I've run out of water bottles!

Awesome!

This simple Thai sauce recipe can be served over vegetables, cubed pan fried tofu, or over rice or noodles.
3 tbsp. lime juice
Zest of one lime
1 tbsp. brown sugar

˝ cup vegetable broth
4 tbsp peanut butter
1 tbsp peanut oil
1, 1 inch piece of grated ginger root or 2 tsp powdered ginger root
1 tbsp. garlic to taste

Place peanut butter in a bowl. Add warmed coconut milk and stir in with a wisk. Add the broth and continue to stir. Stir in the remaining ingredients (except for the garlic and peanut oil) and mix well. Sauté some vegetables in peanut oil with garlic.

Here's a spicy, fat free snack. Great with baked Tortilla Chips:

SALSA
1 14.5 oz can tomatoes w/green chilles (drained)
1 15 oz can whole peeled tomatoes (with juice)
1/4 c diced onion
1 Tbsp jalapenos (I used jarred)
1/2 tsp cumin
1/2 tsp garlic salt
1/2 tsp sugar

Place onion and jalapeno in food processor and pulse a few times. Add both cans of tomatoes, garlic salt, cumin and sugar.
Process until well blended, but not pureed.
Place in covered container for at least 3 hours..but overnight is best.

YUMMY TUNA SALAD SANDWICHES

This is how I make tuna salad--quick, easy, healthier than using mayo:

1. Get a can of solid white, water packed tuna.

2. Open can and shred tuna into flakes.

3. Add equal amounts of plain yogurt and Dijon-style mustard to tuna. I also like Bermuda onion, diced celery, garlic powder and pepper, to taste.

4. Allow flavors to mingle in the refrigerator for about an hour.

I serve this on reduced carb whole wheat bread and a small side of Flax tortilla chips.

You can also make potato salad with the same yogurt/mustard mix.
