Growing Rich Everyday... My Weblog

Enrich yourself by finding and enjoying the simple and finer things in the daily humdrum of life...




Whole Foods has a very good food court and they make an attempt to promote healthy eating by actually having innovative recipes made from commonplace health foods. Quite often we know of a lot of health/vegetarian foods and their nutritional values, but to concoct a palatable recipe out of them is not so trivial.
So as I was just browsing around in their food court, I quickly jotted down (on the backside of one of the numerous receipts in my handbag) some of the ingredients they put together (which of course they had displayed) for the dishes. Of course the recipes are their trade secret. But knowing atleast the ingredients is fair enough of a good start for us.

    I love that you did this! It's something I always think of while shopping at WFM. Man, wouldn't it be great if some WFM employee spilled the recipes? I mean, I'd still shop there...:)
