Learned a few things in San Diego

I spent a week with my dear friend Shannon in Coronado and learned a few things :)
 #1) Honeycrisp Apples are AMAZING!! With Shannon we walked to a farmer's market and bought local organic Honey Crisp Apples. She chopped them up and baked them with a little butter and cinnamon...delicious! When I got home I drove to Publix and purchased non-organic Honeycrisp Apples. I chopped them up and baked at 350 for about 40 minutes with about 3 TBS of butter and a few shakes of cinnamon. This is my new favorite sweet treat.

#2) You can use Cauliflower as a substitute for Rice. When I got home I made this stir-fry http://www.100daysofrealfood.com/2010/05/05/recipe-farmers’-market-stir-fry/ with chicken and cauliflower instead of rice. I chopped up one head of cauliflower in pieces that could fit in my food processor. With the "grating" blade I grated all the cauliflower and nuked it covered in the microwave for 4 minutes. It was a great substitute and it passed one of the hardest tests (Erik)!
