One of the interesting things in the new WW 3-month journal is that it has a recipe for every week. I tried out the week 1 recipe today and hubby had some too. I made a couple of substitutes out of necessity - like digging out baby corn from the frozen stir-fry to replace corn kernals and we didn't have red-wine vinegar so we used balsamic vinegar. Also, we skipped the cilantro or basil to taste - I didn't have any fresh and knew it would be good as-is. What would I do differently next time? Less jalapeno pepper - there was half a pepper in each salad and we are just not used to that intensity. I'll post here the recipe that WE made.
And YES - I would make this again!!! In fact, I made up another container for my lunch tomorrow. Two thumbs up.

thanks for the comment re: the mirena - i didn't really have much choice in having it removed and feel that until i'm done having kids (if and when), it's not an option i'm considering anytime soon... though i read so many negative comments on that site the other day, i DO know that not everyone has issues with it... if i didn't have the blood-clotting issue, i'm not sure i would still chose an IUD but who knows... :)
Girl that sounds good!!! Thanks for sharing!!
You sound like me... I LOVE leftover to bring to work the next day. It beats a sandwich anyday!!!
That sounds really good, going to have to try it.
