Comments
Great idea about adding the water chestnuts to create a crunch! Nice photo, those sweet potatoes fries look good, wondering how you spiced them up?
Hmm, a quick sauce made of Greek yogurt + squeeze of lemon + dill would make a great healthy topping for that salmon burger!
Sean-They are actually carrots spritzed w- olive oil and sprinkled w- dill. Roast them on 400 for 20 min.
Meatball- sounds awesome! I have all ingredients on hand. I used a bit of garlic-infused olive oil mayo- next time I'll go the healthier route!
