It’s always interesting to see what others like and find interesting (as with your Quicklinks). But it’s also as interesting to see what it is you don’t like. And carrots? I would have never guessed! Maybe it’s because I like them so much (especially raw!) that I can’t imagine others not enjoying them as much. :) Anyway, the carrot and caper recipe certainly looks delicious and I would like to try that myself. :)

Hi Kathryn … I can tell you that those carrots and capers are REALLY delicious – I made them the other night, really worth trying, even if carrots aren’t your favourite

Thanks for great links

Oooooh, I do love carrots. Must try the recipes. I love your round ups!

Yum! I just finished a very generous bowl of the white bean and tomato soup – it was lovely! Just the nourishing start to the week that my body was craving. P.S. My beans were intact and it still worked a treat.

Hey there Renee – glad you enjoyed the soup and the beans behaved. After talking to you, I’ve bought ingredients to make the burritos again in the next few days as well. This time with white beans. Haven’t made the soup yet. Hmm, wonder if I have all the ingredients for lunch today?

Everyone gives a big thumbs-up to the carrots and capers, so I will definitely be trying in the next week.

I made the burrito’s for dinner last night (with kidney beans instead of black beans and 2 small red chilli’s instead of green) and they were a hit! I made a salsa to go with it – tomato, cucumber, chopped spinach (left over from soup), corriander, corn, olive oil, red onion and lemon juice… Even K enjoyed it – I just didn’t tell him it was sweet potato until after he’d finished his second helping!

Beautiful meal Renee. Richard doesn’t like sweet potato either, but he does like the burritos – so it’s a good way of masking the flavour. And I have bean and tomato soup on the stovetop – cooking away for lunch.
