I HAVE NOT EVEN PREPARED THIS DISH! HAVE YOU PLANTED A SPAIN ON A FORK CAMERA IN MY FRIDGE/PANTRY? I JUST CUT UP A CUCUMBER AND WAS WONDERING WHAT TO DO WITH IT BESIDES JUST NIBBLING THE PIECES. I HAVE BEEN THINKING WHAT TO DO WITH THE LONELY TIN OF CANNELINI BEANS IN MY PANTRY, AS WELL. THANKS AGAIN FOR THIS RECIPE OF DELICIOUSNESS. I HAVE ENJOYED YOUR RECIPES BOTH ON YOUTUBE AND THROUGH MY E-MAILS. PLANT-BASED FOR FIFTY-SIX YEARS, SO MOST OF YOUR RECIPES FIT RIGHT IN WITH MY LIFE. BY THE WAY, I DO NOT USE ANY OILS; YOUR RECIPES STILL REMAIN A DELICIOUS DELIGHT FOR ME….BRAVO20 . Aug . 2022
