My favourite lettuce:
Wasabi rocket
Oak leaf lettuce/ plain rocket is second actually third because they share the nomination.

Not really lettuce but very nice in a salad: Watercress.


For the salad:

1 bag of B&W Watercress
1 bunch of sugar snap peas

For the Lime Wasabi dressing:
3 T bottled lime juice
4 T oil of choice
1 T wasabi paste
1/2 tsp coarse salt

Mix in jar and shake

Finish salad by tossing watercress and snap peas, drizzle dressing and serve.

Thanks Nigella Lawson!

I think there's a Korean style where they put BBQ-ed/roasted meats into lettuce. You would wrap the meat along with fillings inside the lettuce and then eat it.

It's pretty good

Anyone tried pumpkin cream pasta with chicken and spinach?

There's a lunch special with that today (comes with ice lemon tea, sugared). I think I'm getting it today.

Pro tip: do not add the same amount of sugar to beef bulgogi that Koreans do. Not to my palate at all.

The poll hits me in the feels because spinach is best edible leaf to me. But to answer it, when it comes to lettuce, I’m a fan of red leaf, with romaine a close second.

Definitely cauliflower.

Even when smothered in rich cheese sauce? :o

I keep forgetting that pumpkins can be eaten out of Halloween. All that sounds good, though—

No offence Shwe, but you've reminded me that I forgot something on my dislike list -- pumpkin and squash. Just don't get on with the texture. I get on fine with others in the gourd family -- melons and cucumbers, for example.

Also, sweet potatoes. Again, it's a texture thing. Even a baked one tends to be far too soggy for my taste.

:pensiveblobparty:

I've enjoyed sweet potatoes and pumpkins before, sometimes fried. Which reminds me that my mom made fried bananas today. Pretty good, though, they lose heat pretty quickly so I have to eat them immediately—

Wow... Halloween coming up. Is it me or does time seem to travel so fast?

...

I like pumpkin seeds as well. I'd always max out on it at the buffet salad section if it's a thing.

Pumpkin cream soup is great. However, you can also make a pumpkin (non-cream) soup where its mostly made with sugar water and pumpkins.

I would also like to try pumpkin juice someday, I hear it's a thing in Harry Potter. =)

Banana cake sounds good though, I'd love to try

Idk. I remember the time when the dalgona coffee trend was going around. I am not fond of coffee but it was quite good.
