Nonalcoholic Strawberry Margaritas

Drescription

A frozen virgin strawberry margarita is a refreshing way to cool down on warm days. This margarita mocktail, which calls for only five ingredients, uses a bit of agave nectar to blunt the tartness of lime juice and fresh strawberries.

Ingredients

1 (16 ounce) package frozen whole strawberries
½ cup water
¼ cup lime juice
¼ cup light blue agave nectar (see tip)
⅛ teaspoon salt
lime slices for garnish

Directions

Place 16 ounces strawberries, 1/2 cup water, 1/4 cup lime juice, 1/4 cup agave nectar and 1/8 teaspoon salt in a blender. Pulse until loosened and chunky, about 10 pulses. Process on high until smooth, about 20 seconds. Pour into 4 glasses and garnish with lime slices, if desired.

Roasted Pork Bánh Mì (Vietnamese Sandwich)

Bánh mì sandwiches are delicious. I'll never forget my first real bánh mì. I remember thinking to myself, this isn't just one of the best sandwiches I've ever had to eat, but one of the best things, period. Not only do we get amazing contrasts in flavor and texture, but also the temperature difference between the crisp, warm, meat-filled roll, and cool, crunchy vegetables makes this so much fun to eat.
