When I’m not writing this blog, I am an avid, some might say compulsive, blog reader. One of the blogs I read regularly for cooking inspiration is The Kitchn. So you can imagine my excitement this morning when I received an email from their managing editor saying that later in the day they would be posting a question I had sent in about finding BPA-free canned tomatoes. With the growing concern about BPA in food products, I’ve switched to metal water bottles and started buying the one brand of canned beans that does not use BPA in its liners, but I haven’t been able to find a good alternative to canned tomatoes. You can find out what the blog editor and readers suggested I do here.
The Kitchn is always serving up tasty-looking recipes. In the last couple of weeks, I’ve tried two that I was very happy with. If you’re looking for some yummy, seasonal dessert ideas, consider their poached apricots or strawberry milkshakes. The apricots were sweet enough for dessert, but seemed healthy enough to eat again for lunch the next day. And while I can’t say anything about the health benefits of a milkshake lunch, I certainly won’t judge you if you go that route.
