This one might be a stretch in the holiday-food category… but hey, it’s green and it’s red… I figure Christmas Coconut Rice has to be a tradition somewhere in the world right? This holiday season was a little different for us – we just got back from a winter wonderland of a week in Chicago, so our family festivities are pretty much over. We filled up on pizza, cheesecake, and all sorts of other indulgences… suffice it to say I’m ready to lighten things up a little bit early this year. Coconut rice is one of my favorite things… it’s a tasty way to pack in a bunch of green foods and you can vary the veggies depending on the season. Or if things aren’t growing right now where you are: frozen edamame to the rescue. Of course, if you’re still seeking holiday treats check out this Cookie Party at Daily Candy that I contributed to along with a few other favorite bloggers. Some sweet recipes!
