FYI: am about to leave coffee shop to experiment on this savvy recipe … using lime juice instead of lemon, pb instead of peanuts, cous cous instead of millet, mixing with out food processor, etc.

this should be the true test to my savvyness xo

1. Yes, you can use quinoa or cous cous instead for sure!
2. Do you have dried basil? Other fresh herbs? If you use dried, use about 1/3 the amount the recipe calls for. Otherwise, you could saute some garlic or onion in instead for more flavor.
3. If you don’t have a food processor, maybe use PB instead of peanuts so it is easier to blend. And if your grinder doesn’t work, you could also heat the sauce ingredients on the stove so that they are easier to blend!

Your kitchen can easily be savvy.

lets say that i have a ginormous zucchini from Z’s garden in my fridge right now and want to make something similiar.

lets say i dont have millet, but i do have KEENWAH, (you know i have to say it like that), cous cous, brown rice, etc.

lets say i dont have basil.

lets say i am thinking about using my coffee bean grinders as a food processor. (stop laughing.)

HELP. can i do this? what do you suggest.
i want to make a savvy kitchen out of the THS kitchen

Definitely! The only thing you may need to look out for is the soy sauce…everything else should be GF. SO wish I was going to see you at HLS!!

The weekend’s over now – but I had a weekend of friends, grilling out, family, running, and REST!
Sounds like your weekend will/was great

I love nothing more than exploring on a bike! I’m excited for the weekend – we’re going to see Inception tonight then grab a bite to eat & tomorrow night we’re having dinner with some friends who are in town from Miami.

Have fun at Heather’s!
