Trader Joe's Dinner's Done - 4 recipes

New thing today, tried 4 new recipes from the Trader Joe's Dinner's Done cookbook.

Coconut rice - easy but couldn't taste the coconut in the rice. Oh well?

Crab on Cucumber Boats - ok. We didn't have dill so I taste tested and improvised with rosemary. Not bad. Not great either, but it's an interesting appetizer.

Figs with Goat Cheese - yum, easy and a new favorite. I think I might like goat cheese. A great snack and dessert.

Cucumber soup - eh. Leans to eh gross but overall it's healthy, refreshing and different. Plus nicer in this summer heat.

Overall I think the cruise opened my eyes to new different foods and taught me to be more adventurous. I also think I'm going to eat smaller interesting meals more often, and I'm definitely going more exotic and risky with food. Adventure! I think my health also appreciated this new slant to my eating/cooking.
