Asian Lettuce Wraps and Coconut Lime Rice

Mmm... these were really good: pork lettuce wraps with grapefruit. I used a recipe that caught my eye in my Food Network Magazine, although I used ground turkey thighs rather than the ground pork because that was all I could find on the way home from work. The Bibb lettuce and the scallions are from the CSA. I would definitely make these again!

The coconut lime rice was somewhat of a disappointment... not as flavorful as I hoped, and the rice didn't get quite cooked all the way for some reason. Oh well. I'll try a different recipe next time, perhaps. And I'll try the coconut popsicles from the magazine, too!

Pink Grapefruit and Champagne Sorbet


After going to the farmers market this morning, I decided I needed to use up some of the 8 grapefruits that Chuck and I bought on a whim last week, but were too lazy to fix for eating. So I juiced the 3 remaining grapefruits and busted out the ice cream maker for some David Lebovitz pink grapefruit champagne sorbet... it was great and really easy. Only 3 ingredients necessary: grapefruit juice, champagne, sugar.
