Yogurt
I needed a couple of tablespoons of plain yogurt for the naan recipe I made a couple of weeks ago but the grocery store had only large containers of plain yogurt. Why is that? They had all kinds of small containers of yogurt with every flavor imaginable except plain. So I ended up getting a 32 oz container of plain yogurt. way way way more than I needed. So I again had a dilemma of too much of something and asked my fb/twitter friends for advice.
The most common suggestion was fruit smoothies. Why didn't I think of that? I stocked up on some fruits to make some smoothies with some of the yogurt. I got some kiwi and strawberries and still have a bunch of frozen blueberries that I had picked last summer.
I also got a good recipe for Waldorf Salad from Frank that was actually pretty tasty. I'm not sure I've ever had waldorf salad so don't have much to compare it to but it turned out well. I used craisins instead of raisins and didn't use dates. I also used one can of albacore and one can of regular tuna. Probably would have been even better if I used two cans of albacore.
