...I made a delicious mango-raspberry smoothie...that's it...that's all there is in there...look how thick and creamy it is though...
...but somewhere in my past - I must have remembered a mango raspberry salad dressing because I thought how perfect it would be to turn a little bit of this smoothie into a little bit of salad dressing...
...so I put a couple of spoonfuls in a bowl...and mixed in some red wine vinegar...raspberry vinegar would probably have been better, but I didn't have any...
...and poured that over my salad at lunch...and it was so very good...both my breakfast smoothie and my lunchtime salad...
...do you ever get a food transformation ideas like that...what's your best idea?...
Oh my those both look so delicious!
ReplyDeleteI just used my last mango so I guess I need to make a phone call and have my husband pick up more. That looks so yummy!
ReplyDeleteI have been doing blueberries, peaches or mango, almond milk and the meat of a young coconut...tastes just like I'm having dessert for breakfast.
yum!! both for the mango dressing and the smoothie!
ReplyDeleteI can't remember having such a brainwave!
ReplyDeleteBut, you reminded me of my Grandma's raspberry vinegar. Malt vinegar with raspberries steeped in it overnight. Strained and then boiled with lots of white sugar to form a syrup. Amazing with pancakes, in hot water to sooth colds, over a plain pudding - just lovely.
mmmm. both look wonderful!
ReplyDeletei know i've had moments like this - but can i think of one right now? no. other than throwing all kinds of good left-overs together to make soups. :)

Nice! I bet it would be wonderful over an herb salad mix!
