I'm lucky enough to have a kid who likes eating (or at least trying) everything. He likes california rolls and loves any sort of salmon sushi.
This is a cute gift for any child who loves sushi or imaginative play:
At $20, it's a steal!
-- or anyone who likes curries.
Yesterday, I mad an extremely easy recipe for some nice yellow curried peas using items from Trader Joe's. If you are in a hurry, this is very tasty and is done in about 1/2 hour.
Curried Peas*
- 2 bags of their frozen organic peas
- 1 bottle of their yellow curry
- 1 can of their coconut milk
- 1 package of firm tofu
In a large pan, combine the curry and coconut milk and warm for a few minutes. Add the peas and heat for about 15 minutes -- stirring occasionally. Add the tofu and heat for another 15 minutes, or until peas are done.
My variations include: adding cubed chicken (we had some leftover chicken I roasted, so I put some chicken in my husband's bowl), cubed potatoes and carrots.
The husband made some basmati rice and I popped some naan into the oven and we had a nice, quick dinner.
