Food Like That: Recipes your mouth will like

This is a very simple recipe that barely deserves a write up. However, it WAS delicious.

I can't find the recipe that I originally made a couple of Christmas' ago, so I ended up making this from scratch. Most people aren't used to having Brussel sprouts shredded -- they're good.

A quick lunch I put together for folks with dairy issues. The coconut milk makes it creamy, and the mustard adds some zing.

I usually do an Asian-style grated carrot salad with sesame oil, but the meal I was making was very mediterranean. I was going for something light and summery, and I think it worked really well as a palate cleanser / small starter. Next time I would adjust it to have a little more zing: it was a bit too sweet, so maybe balsamic vinegar would have gone better.

I never make mayonnaise-based potato salads, but lean towards German-style vinegar dressings. I often add mustard because a) I love Dijon and b) it adds a bit of creamyness. This particular mix has me adding cream cheese, because it happened to be sitting around and seemed a good fit for the fresh mint.

I often make eggplant slices baked in the oven, and when I saw these "baby" eggplants, I thought they would be good whole. And they are! Here's a page with a bunch of different kinds of eggplants pictured: http://www.evergreenseeds.com/oreg.html
