my boyfriend and i love mexican food. i want to cook him something yummy tomorrow but i dont know many mexican recipes and i dont cook it often. does anyone have any good ideas for a valentines day dinner? also it would be nice if it were fairly easy, like i said i dont cook mexican often

baskin robbins makes a honey ice cream called bumble buzz which is pretty good. it has fudge swirls and honey comb in it too:) yummm

ohhhh i love peanut butter and honey sandwiches. i eat those a lot:) also peanut butter, banana and honey sandwiches are one of my favorite munchies foods.

its possible that its just the way ive been brought up, but i was always really grossed out by raw poultry. i think especially with the way we treat our livestock in the US its not safe to eat it unless its cooked through. i think maybe if it's organic then it might be alright but i doubt i would even like the flavor. in general i have never been a big fan of poultry, i like red meat and fish much more and hardly ever eat it anymor.

So recently ive started drinking it. SG Synergy makes really yummy fruit ones. I like the vinegar taste... anyways, there is a lot of controversy with the health benifits of it. some people say it can be toxic over time, and some people say that it balances the body and aids digenstion ect...theres not a lot of reaserch on it and ive been looking for information but there isnt much scientific evidence that it is healthy or unhealthy. does anyone have experience with drinking kombucha or does anyone have information? I like the taste a lot:)

well i have not tried something yet that i dont like :) i'm a pretty adventurous eater and i like a lot of exotic and sharp flavours.

they are loose and dried...so they are not edamame. I thought they were going to be baked and crunchy but they are raw and dried.

usually i par-boil them, then in a frying pan i fry them in olive oil and a little brown sugar. :) yum!

wow that sounds fantastic! i think i need to make this soon :)

thats a good idea. i know plenty of japanese and chinese places around me but i'm going to have to search for korean. I know there are korean resturaunts around here somewhere i just gt look harder...

well instead should i have said "i have always been a big fan of chinese, japanese, korean and indian food"? would that have been easier for u to comprehend?

so I bought a huge bag of soy beans-they were on sale. I dont know many recipes involving soy beans though. tell me your favorites please :)

when did i lump them into one category? all i said was that they didnt speak english.

when you say leave out...do u mean buy the kimchi and just open it and not refridgerate it? i saw jars of it at the store. ive had it befor. there is a sushi place near me what makes a roll called the "seuol train roll" and it has kimchi in it. its really good. how do i leave it out to"sour"? is this safe to do? thanx for all your help everyone this is really cool :)

hmmm i will look into those. the thing is ive tried to ask questions but the people there speak hardly any english. It was hard enough to get them to show me where the bamboo rolling mats for sushi were

I love making hummus myself. not to be egotistical but i freaking love my homemade hummus the best out of anyone elses. i put fresh chopped garlic, lemon juice, sea salt, a few sundried tomatoes and a little paprika in a food processor with a can of garbanzo beans and i refrigerate it for a few hours. ive found that refrigerating it is really important beucase it allows the garlic flavor to really come out. i love garlic!!!

I have always been a huge fan of asian foods. I have not been able to go out to eat as much anymore though becuase ive been kinda broke lately. I recently discovered this amazing international market by my house called "Korean Korner" which has tons of asian foods that are compleatly affordable. the only thing is i need to learn to cook the stuff myself, and most of the packages dont even have english or instructions on them. I saw things like dried squid and other dried fishes, aloe, guava, so many different types of noodles and sea weeds, tiny shrinps in jars, kimchi and so much stuff i cant even identify. can anyone direct me towards a good place to find a ton of recipes and explinations for a lot of the foods that i dont even know what to do with? I love to cook and want to learn to do this on my own but i was so confused in this store. :)
