I'd be interested if anyone else has a recipe. This looks like it might be good .... Dragonfruit lime drink with spirulina http://www.nst.com.my/Misc/goodbites/Recipe/20060919131106/moreR_html This recipe uses it as a garnish on Lobster-Filled Squid Ink Ravioli in Lobster Consomme http://www.starchefs.com/features/cookbooks/star_cookbooks/html/susur.shtml So ... can it be used to sprinkle on things like salad or entrees? What would it pair well with? I'm guessing sea food. This site has a recipe for guacamole with spirulina ... it's a UK site ... so spirulina chippies are baked potato chips. http://www.spirulina.org.uk/recipes.htm The green beans, avocado dressing and garden baked potatoes sound good here ... the gravy verde & tofu gravy ... not so much. I'm undecided about the Leprechaun Macaroons http://www.seaoflife.org/Spirulina_recipes.htm Asparagus Lemon Gnocchi with Tomato Pesto http://www.simple-vegetarian-recipes.com/vegetables-asparagus-lemon-gnocchi-with-tomato-pesto.html A recipe for growing your own artisan spirulina http://www.desertconcerns.org/grow%20spirulina.htm Fri Jun 08 21:56:47 -0700 2007 10264 rworange 1 2652443 Per your request on the other thread.... I was unable to find a recipe for Spirulina soup... but I will try to come up with a recipe based on memory of what I tasted. In the meantime I found a recipe for Tempura Tofu with Spirulina.... The tofu is carved into thick strips... battered & fried, then dusted with Thyme & Spirulina to taste... served with a melange of carmelized onions, garlic, mushrooms & green chiles... and a lime-mayo dressing. http://mx.msnusers.com/solosysolasvegetarianos/vegarecetas.msnw Tue Jun 12 09:58:41 -0700 2007 2644051 42572 Eat_Nopal
