    Oops, typed in cuke on my gazpacho twice -- it's just one.
  • Mariah Andrews Jul 21 5:15 PM - Comment
    Just made the best gazpacho, inspired by one I had at Legal Seafood in Boston: 1 cucumber, 1 avocado, 1 sm. cuke, 1 chile pepper, 1/2 tsp. old bay seasoning, 1 clove garlic, 1 can stewed tomatoes, 1 tbsp. lemon juice. Puree and yum.

    Follow oatmeal cookie recipe. Take out cinnamon. Replace egg with very ripe banana. Replace butter with butter-flavored shortening. Use vegan choco chips. So awesome!
