lauren You had a culinary arts class in high school?! That's amazing. I've learned everything I know from my parents or grandma, but I would love to take a knife skills class at some point.
Leftovers are delicious.

DietID_TeamDietitians Oatmeal is also a great alternative to eggs if you're trying to cut back. Just as quick, equally as filling!

DietID_TeamDietitians do you have a yonana?? That's how I make dairy-free yogurt. I'm making this tonight!

rahbjee @Rachna I do not have a yonana.. First time I heard of it! Very intrigued, what is it?!
Eat your turnip greens!
Don't get rid of your turnip greens! Chop them off of your turnips before storing in the fridge in order to help the greens and roots last longer. We like to lightly sauté the greens in garlic and ...

FarmerDave I add them to a simple stir fry with ginger and tamari. I never used to keep turnip greens, but I'm so glad I do now.

RahulRaRa I wonder if you can use these greens like you use spinach in some Indian flatbreads.
-
olivettefarm @RahulRaRa I bet you could. The turnips greens will cook a little quicker than spinach does possibly. @FarmerDave that sounds good! Gonna have to try that.

I was surprised to learn how much protein we actually need. It seems like much less than people actually eat.

So informative! Based on some of the products I see in the store (like special k with protein) you would think that it was not plentiful in so many whole foods.
