A delicious little mandarin that's only available in the winter. I was stoked to see them in the produce section last week.

The Halos trademark, also “Wonderful Halos,” is owned by Wonderful Citrus, which also owns the trademarks POM Wonderful pomegranates, Wonderful Pistachios, Wonderful Almonds and Sweet Scarlett red grapefruit. It is the #1 mandarin brand in the U.S. and 100% California-grown (some producers may augment their domestic supply with imported fruit). Even their website sounds delicious: Wonderful.com.

I had no idea. For some reason I thought they might be tiny Filipino cookies. No idea why I thought that...kinda like macaroons . Live and learn.

Nope, nope, nope. I'm working on reducing my intake of sugar and while fruit has sugar, it's a different kind than the added sugar found in sweets, so I use my Halos to curb my cravings for sweet stuff. Apples help too, but not as much because they aren't as adorable or juicy as Halos.

When the Halos run out, I usually get Cuties.

February 15th is National Clementine Day.

Clementines are a type of mandarin.

I think that's all I got.

Anyway, tonight I went with the poor man's knockoff of a Chicago dog. I slit and seared my turkey dogs in avocado oil spray and then put them on Artesano sausage rolls with mustard and Pickle de Gallo. They were good. Not great, like a Chi-Town dog, but good enough. I had water to drink and 3 Halos for dessert.

Too many sausage links, one over medium fried egg and for the main course a pile of hashbrowns topped with some Heinz no sugar added catsup. It just occurred to me – even though I write catsup, when I talk about it I say ketch up. Probably in part because I grew up around people who used both but there was more behind it than that. I vaguely remember my mother explaining it once but... well it escapes me.

Scallops in a white wine sauce with leeks and mushrooms
It came with fingerling potatoes and a Spicey mango corn salad on the side

Goodness, it's great. I've been reading up on how some models chip and flake. Those are the kind I purchased in the past and it drove me mad. I did some research after being tempted by you and firegal and found one just right for me.

It's good not only for cooking food but also for reheating it. I still haven't made apple chips or dehydrated any food yet, but this one is definitely a keeper.

Will probably have wings tonight in the air fryer with power greens on the side.

I sincerely hope you survived.

Also on the delicious train!

Woot! Woot!

You both had me at mushrooms.

Tonight was a salad with a small piece of toasted naan, a teeny apple and a Halo. Lots of water to drink.

FireSignFemme · 10-06-2020, 12:12 AM

Two sugar free chocolate pudding cups.

Orema · 10-06-2020, 03:45 AM

Wings were good last night. Tonight will be a sheet pan of italian sausage with sweet peppers, shallots, and tomatoes.

Now that I've been binging on The Great British Baking Show, I simply cannot see shallots without pronouncing it "shall OTTs" in my head. This sounds quite tasty.

It's really too early to tell what I'll venture towards but I think I want something more substantial than a salad. Maybe it will be my last turkey dog wannabe Chi-Town dog. Maybe I'll finally get those tacos going. Both sound yummy.

Bèsame* · 10-06-2020, 07:11 PM

Better than BLT
Bacon, avacado, swiss, spinach,tomatos on whole wheat pita bread.
Coleslaw.

Pretty fast (after beach walk) andeasy. Really good!
