I don't remember seeing it but I am looking at so many blogs during MoFo I am having trouble keeping them all straight.<br /><br />Both the hubby and I liked this recipe. Which is very odd since I was a sprout hater less than five years ago. <br /><br />thanks for commenting,<br />AliciaVegan Epicureanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08203676819322299569noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3790414766945352054.post-86926201472882532022009-10-24T14:24:39.626-04:002009-10-24T14:24:39.626-04:00We just had a similar dish last week with dinner--...We just had a similar dish last week with dinner--I LOVED it but my honey wasn't too keen.

Are you growing them at your house?<br /><br />I just got home from cooking class. We had a blast, as always. <br /><br />I need to make the hubby's lunch for tomorrow now so I have something to post today. <br /><br />Will be back soon,<br />AliciaVegan Epicureanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08203676819322299569noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3790414766945352054.post-39505366875106232632009-10-21T20:07:38.653-04:002009-10-21T20:07:38.653-04:00Sooo healthy looking!

I try to put as much information out there as I have in my head at the time I write the post. It is nice to know that people find it useful.<br /><br />Ten years ago my husband was also very resistant to change. He loved everything that was bad for him. Since the cancer diagnosis he has been much more willing to change. Would your husband consider eating his unhealthy food when he is away from the family and eating healthy at home with the family? I know a few families that work things that way.<br /><br />As you obviously noticed I spend a lot of time reading about nutrition. The book that I have found the most useful so far is "Life Over Cancer". It is like a oncology course but at the same time it is very uplifting. If you haven't read it I highly recommend the book.<br /><br />thanks again for your kind words,<br />AliciaVegan Epicureanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08203676819322299569noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3790414766945352054.post-84545708367221891232009-10-21T14:14:32.291-04:002009-10-21T14:14:32.291-04:00All of your recipes look fabulous and your blog is...All of your recipes look fabulous and your blog is truly a wealth of information! Thanks for asking about my son, he is doing extremely well. I am working toward making as many changes as you and your hubby have, but I meet a lot of resistance from my hubby who still eats meat and loves processed food. I read every book and study about nutrition and cancer prevention I can get my hands on, so we have a lot in common. You are very inspiring!janethttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09674219866233495307noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3790414766945352054.post-2994126718086393362009-10-21T10:30:49.111-04:002009-10-21T10:30:49.111-04:00Shenandoah,

I mix brown basmati and wild rice sometimes since they have a similar cooking time.

It comes in a little 4 ounce box, the name is something like "Haddon House". I have also bought big bags of wild rice from the healthfood store. We don't eat it often so I find the little boxes to be most space efficient.<br /><br />AliciaVegan Epicureanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08203676819322299569noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3790414766945352054.post-73030163613492436472009-10-21T10:10:50.460-04:002009-10-21T10:10:50.460-04:00Where did you get/what kind of wild rice did you u...Where did you get/what kind of wild rice did you use?Vegan In The VIhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05987192418948736625noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3790414766945352054.post-9474568788157575642009-10-21T09:17:47.620-04:002009-10-21T09:17:47.620-04:00Oraphan,

I have been in sushi mode recently too.<br /><br />Madeleine,<br /><br />It was a revelation to me as well regarding the brussels. I really thought I hated them, until I had them cooked properly. They have such a different taste when they are cooked tender crisp.<br /><br />You are welcome for the tea shop suggestion. If I can help you find anything locally let me know. We struggled initally looking for healthfood stores, etcetera so if I can help you to not go through that I am happy to be of assistance.<br /><br />AliciaVegan Epicureanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08203676819322299569noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3790414766945352054.post-49429881865181237902009-10-21T01:56:15.781-04:002009-10-21T01:56:15.781-04:00Aha!

I never considered that it could be that the brussel sprouts weren't cooked properly that I never liked them... happy to know that maybe this year, if made correctly, I'll get to enjoy brussel sprouts for the very first time.<br /><br />Thanks for the tip about the tea shop.
