137: PB&C?


So this evening I tried a new creation: Peanut Butter and Craisin toast. It was quite tasty! We got a good deal on Craisins (dried cranberries) at Harris Teeter and I've been thinking about ways to use them....this was a success as was the chicken salad with craisins mixed in. Anyone have any other suggestions?

Ukrops has a "sea breeze" Chicken salad that has crasins and almond or walnut chips/slices mixed in, it is quite tasty!

Craisins and walnuts. So you could adapt the PB&C into a WB&C. Pretty much craisins and nuts are a pretty safe bet. I've used them to cut through the heat of spicy pasta dishes I've made: like to balance the heat of dried red pepper flakes in a shellfish & pasta dish. Sounds crazy, but it works.

Basically, if you have a library, check out (or put on hold) The Flavor Bible by Karen Page and Andrew Dornenburg. They list virtually any ingredient you could think of and what it goes well with. It's less a book on reads as much as it is a book one experiments with. Sorry for hijacking your comments. :)

They go well in cookies. Like oatmeal, but instead of raisins, its craisins.
