Chicken Stir-Fry Wraps
I love lettuce wraps - so much healthier than adding a carb to a dinner meal.
Slice the chicken breast in half horizontally; stack the thin halves, then thinly slice crosswise.

Parsley Root Fries with Roasted Tomato Ketchup
Just came across this recipe and it caught my eye. Didn't even know you could eat Parsley Roots.
Like any kid, I was pretty enamored with McDonalds french fries. For little me and my little hands, they were like golden, salty, magic wands, able to appease even the worst of my temper tantrums and toddler breakdowns.

Yumm, a healthy alternative to the arancini
Anytime I have leftover cooked quinoa, I make these little patties. They are good hot or cold and are well suited to fighting afternoon hunger pangs. It's a bit of a stretch, but they could be described as a (very) distant cousin of arancini, Italy's beloved deep-fried risotto balls.
