A simple salad...


1/2 a head of iceburg lettuce
2 avacodos
2 tomatoes
one cucumber
olive oil
salt
pepper
garlic
balsamic viniger
lemon juice
mustard powder
tear up the iceburg lettuce into a big bowl, and then get some scissors and make it even smaller. peal and slice the avacodos. slice the tomatoes in little chunks. peal the cucumner, and slice it. put everything into the bowl. put about a tablespoon of olive oil into the bowl, a dash or two of salt, a bunch of pepper, some shakes of dried garlic, and some balsamic viniger. put about a dash of mustard powder.. and a teaspoon or tablespoon of lemon juice. this is all.. depending on what you like. you can leave out anything you want.. wel.. i guess you could remove the lettuce.. it would be more concentrated..! =P i think that should be good

yummy picnicish wraps



1. a tortilla wrap (or lots if your making it for more than one person)
2. half an avacodo sliced
3. five black olives
4. a tad of mustard
5. just a tiny bit of onion
6. a bit of cream cheese (to spread on wrap)
7. salt and pepper (if you want)
8. and also some deli meat if you want that too!

spread out the tortilla wrap flat on the counter on top of some wax paper. spread the cream cheese over the wrap. if you choose deli meat, spread out a thin peice over the tortilla. then clumped on one side, put the sliced avacodos and sliced black olives. then add some extremely finely chopped onion...and put some mustard in different places kind of spread out. :-) wrap up the tortilla. then wrap the wax paper on top, and if you want slice it down the middle and put it in a picnic basket. XD
FYI= you can always add more stuff. add anything you want. sliced tomatoes...lettuce..anything you like. :p

this is random

ok. i did this randomly, so if you are in for a surprise and your feeling chocolaty, try this!
ingredients
1. coco powder (a bunch.. put it in the blender to taste)
2. dates or raisens (or both) and again.. just put in the amount you think would be good.
3. pecans... (this would probobly be about.. maybe a cup..
4. honey

ok. now you put all this in the blender. once it is well blended..(without pecan pieces and stuff) taste it. if its not chocolaty enough, add more chocolate... if its not thick enough, add pecans... if its not sweet or goooy enough add honey and raisens.
taste it again! its yummy! (and i suppose techinacally you could serve it at tea..)
