Happy Earth Day!

Happy Earth Day!

Remember to think about all the "E's" on this day:  
Economics, Education, Environment, and Encouragement.  They all
tie together.  Being a good steward of the environment is a great start to 
alleviating problems in other areas.  You can make a difference!

Simple Side Dish Ideas:

Stuffed Cherry Tomatoes:  Make tiny orzo pasta and then mix with pesto.  Hollow out cherry tomatoes and drain on paper towels.  Fill each with the pesto pasta.  Very cute for parties.  

Star Snacks:  With a 1" cutter the shape of a star (or anything else) , cut stars out of cooked beets, carrots, red peppers, or jicama.  

Whole grain rice salad:  Mix: 3 cups cooked rice, 1/4 cup white wine vinegar, 2 TBSP olive oil, 2 TBSP fresh lemon juice, 1 TBSP fresh dill, 1 tsp salt, and freshly ground pepper.
