Day 21 - Cheesy Broccoli Soup - AGAIN!

My sweet husband told me that he is ok with our choice of food right now, but he is only enjoying about 25 percent of what I am making. What?! "Cook for yourself then!" was my first reaction, but I can understand how changing your tastes can take a while so I will continue to tweak our food and make more of his favorites, one of which is "cheesy" broccoli soup. I have the recipe on this website. It is always so good, but so very rich that I can only eat one bowl of it.

For lunch I experimented with a dish I had in Boston. It was called Tahini Vegetable Roller and it is basically a fresh vegetable wrap with tahini sauce. I didn't quite taste like I remembered but I think if I had added lemon to the sauce I might have gotten close.

Tahini Vegetable Roller




1 100% whole wheat wrap
1/2 cup romaine lettuce, chopped
1/4 cup cucumber, diced
1/4 cup tomato, diced
1/4 cup broccoli, finely chopped
1/4 cup cauliflower,finely chopped

1 teaspoon tahini sauce
1 teaspoon lemon juice

cracked pepper to taste


Place all vegetables in middle of wrap. Drizzle tahini sauce and lemon juice over vegetables. Add pepper to taste. Roll up and enjoy!
