(* I love the way the radish seeds 'pop' when you bite into them.)
I can't say which one I like the best, which ever one I have cooked up is the winner that day. They make a good lunch idea. I've been trying to watch what I eat and cut back on potatoes a bit. One of my true weaknesses especially fried or mashed with LOTS of butter..mmmmmmmmmm
These blends are really filling but despite all the various ingredents they are a bit on the bland side so you can choose to flavour them all you want. My current favourite is the Chili Lime Sansel from Victorian Epicure. It's not overly expensive and you only have to use a little bit so my bottle is lasting forever. LOL
Oh if you order online you have to type in a consultant's name, use Arlene Roberts. ;o) That's my sister.
I'm going to experiment with some others I'll let you know how they turn out.

You are on the right track I like the pink & black. far more you than the brown.
I like this template the best. Grape vines are right up my alley.
Because of the black background the type needs to be a trifle larger for those of us with bifocals. Love the BackGround It is so you!! perfect choice!
Tried something similar to the Jade Blend and you're right about the radish seed. It's really good with grilled chicken or shrimp.
BTW love the new blog layout.
*muah* Thanks Paz, Grape seemed a little more me. I usually tear up some roasted chicken into my rice for work...I may experiment with a bit of shrimp. That would be a nice change.
I tried the Golden Jewel Blend today and it's awesome! My 7 year old wants it for her lunches. Do you have the nutritional information?
Thank you
