Yup, I’m going to announce the winners of the Tropical Traditions Virgin Coconut Oil (a.k.a. the best moisturizer EVER) but first you have to read through my dinner and the sushi salad recipe!
Dinner tonight was simple and light after our relatively light “streaker burritos” from Moe’s. What, you may ask, is a streaker burrito? Well, its a “naked” burrito, sans tortilla. SO DELICIOUS! We headed to the movies to see Up (a wonderful movie, by the way. Great job Pixar!) and then to the grocery store. What did we see on sale?
Overly processed, far from natural, yet oh-so-delicious fat free Ballpark hot dogs. Then we got not-so-natural, high fiber whole wheat hot dog buns. The best part about this dinner? It was a whopping 1 Point® per hot dog! I ate mine like a true Chicagoan: without ketchup! I made some oven fries on the side as well.

- 2 cups cooked brown rice
- 1 avocado, diced
- 1 cucumber, diced
- 1 red pepper, diced
- 1 small package surimi (fake “krab” meat), chopped
- 2 Tbsp. soy sauce
- 2 Tbsp. vinegar (rice vinegar is good, but I used red wine vinegar)
- 1 Tbsp. wasabi paste
Directions

Great find on the bun. High fiber whole wheat buns are hard to find.
Sounds like some fun meals. Thanks for sharing.

Yeah hotdogs! But I’d probably put ketchup on mine
And I bet your sushi recipe would be great with some nori slivers on top!
