If you're anything like me, you crave something sweet after your meal. I normally wait until the feeling subsides, but in extreme cases, I reach for a teaspoon of brown sugar or agave nectar. Yep, I like it raw.
OR, you could just combine the sweetness with your savory meal and everyone wins! Pictured here is a salad I threw together at the 11th hour when I realized I had no lunch to bring to work. Spring mix with garbanzo beans, onions, tomatoes, and....drum roll, please.....currants! Yay!
The first time I tasted a current, I immediately ran to the box to see how much sugar was added. They were WAY too sweet to be all natural. But lucky me, nothing was added and I was estatic! I had a brief affair with currents the past couple months but have yet to replenish my supply. I may wait a while to ensure that when we're together again, I'll be as grateful as I was the day we met.
