Oh spring and now even summer like weather is here! It is making me crave grilled foods and cold salads. Tomorrow will be hot here so I have turkey breast marinating for the grill and I picked up a whole bunch of veggies at the market. Mmmm cannot wait! Has the weather brought out any one Else's food cravings and if so what for. Hubby is all about the ice cream at the moment.. but I have got kabobs and grilled peaches on the menu for the week... maybe some sweet potato and apple kabobs too.

We have been having fruit cravings. Went to Sizzler's tonight and I had my favorite salmon and baked potato. And I had lots of fruit and a veggie or two. It was wonderful. We will get some more of the fruit and veggies when we shop. I don't like sweet potatos but do like apples.

Although in my part of the world we are starting Autumn, I remember and love my Spring cravings. I like a big salad with iceberg lettuce, olives, avocados, cold chicken and raw mushrooms. I love to make different dressings for them. Just a bit of mustard or homemade mayo or some balsamic vinegar make a difference. I also like the first fried and breaded zuchinni and eggplant. Now, thanks to mylot, I discovered that I can cook green tomatoes the same way.

I have eaten some awesome veggies deepfried after passing them through a light batter. Tempura (japanese) does that. Do you bread cooked green beans or are they raw?
