I read the article earlier this morning – I was so excited to see that you were being featured!!!!

I made the bisque FIRST THING this morning. You are, as always, a genius! Thank you for the awesome recipe, Gena!

Definite food porn. Mmm.
I really enjoyed your perfect post. It’s good to remember that everyone has struggles. Life isn’t easy for anyone, no matter what it looks like to outsiders. Something I struggle to remember!

I made cucumber rolls today! I was going to buy nori but it was too expensive for me at the time. Some day….haha

oh, what perfect inspiration for a Thursday night!
I happen to have ALL that on hand and need excuses to practice nori “wrapping” (because right now, mine aren’t the pretty variety)

congrats on the guest post!
very beautiful meal!

Carrot avocado bisque sounds sooo freakin’ yummy. I could live on avocados alone.

Hi Gena!
I love your blog and follow it regularly! … I wanted to ask you a question about your raw nori rolls. In the past, I have found that if I don’t coat nearly the whole nore sheet with something moist (like a nut pate or spread) the nori will not really soften and will stay almost crunchy and difficult to chew. I noticed you put a relatively small amount of your carrrot spread on the nori sheet, so I was wondering if there was some other secret to getting the nori to soften before eating?
Thanks so much!

Hey Lisa! Thank you for reading!

I have this issue too, but in this case I find that the sauce, coupled with the moist veggies, did the trick. Hope you find the same!!

that bisque was wonderful…if only my juicer hadn’t died mid-way there would have been some to share! perfect balance of flavors, and I love the simple sushi! I made some last night using cauliflower “rice” and the carrot pulp from jucing. so good, so easy, so fun! I was too full to make the banana ice cream for dessert!
now i just have to review all my juicer options for a replacement…

Great topic to discuss here!!! The recipe you have discussed here seemed tasty and delicious too. But can you please publish any recipe that I can prepare myself as Picnic Recipes? It is useful to learn something like Picnic Recipes so that we can prepare quickly and take with us when we go for any tour. Please share if you have something like that…

Want your kid to enjoy the goodies time and again? Send a collection of bread baking mix, tomato basil sauce, smoked pepperoni, and spices like peppers, onions, and garlic and herbs to make a delicious pizza. And don’t forget the pizza stone and rack to make the baking process easier for your kid. Every time he/she bakes a pizza, it would remind of home and of course mom.
