Not Just A Snack

Dear Diary-
Brace yourself Diary- you may ask what I'm smoking with this crazy suggestion but I promise I'm clear headed and it's a tasty hint. Ok you ready....here we go. So Gabe is out to Lee and Ricks for some perfect raw oysters with the boys so I put my planned stuffed peppers on hold for tomorrow night. Therefore after work I swung by the wine shop and picked up a bottle of chilled white wine and came home to make a super yummy tex mex salad. I had some left over veggies in the fridge and sauteed up some eggplant, yellow squash, red onions, grape tomatoes and seasoned up with some cumin, cayenne pepper and fresh lime juice. Topped with sliced avocado, cilantro- and here it is... POPCORN. Yes Diary you heard me right, popcorn. It's not just a snack- it makes one heck of a tasty crouton alternative! Don't get me wrong popcorn topped with Parmesan cheese and spices and a nice ice cold glass of milk is my favorite bedtime snack- but wow popcorn is fantastic on salads! Random...perhpas- unexpectedly good...for sure.
