Lunch: red rice "tacos"

I took a couple of the pancakes left over from this morning's red bean red rice pancakes and stuffed them with a couple of left over shrimp/rice patties from last night, along with lettuce, carrots, red onions, and a little green jalapeno sauce, eaten soft taco style. tasty! that's a lot of red rice.. but it seems to be comparable to brown rice nutrition-wise. to use the pancakes as a flatbread, I'd make them a little bigger, and leave out the cardamom and red bean (maybe adding other flavors). they'd be good stuffed with almost anything.

Dinner: turkey burgers with sweet potato fries

I don't know the exact recipes, but E and I had a couple of friends over saturday and made:
- turkey burgers (with parsley, garlic, green onion, salt, and pepper)
- sweet potato and yam oven fries
- salad of greens, tomatoes from my yard, goat cheese, bacon, and green apples
- blueberry pie

I did the grilling and experimenting with various condiments for the fries and burgers.
