Honestly, I’d never even heard of a Buddha bowl until a week or two ago. I was kind of shocked that it won last week’s poll by so much! At first I thought it was a recipe, then after a few google searches, I realized it was more of a product – an actual bowl.

Last week’s vote for a dish was really close. So close, in fact, that it was a tie. I broke the tie by one email that a nice reader sent me encouraging me to make a shrimp dish. I decided that if she wanted a shrimp dish bad enough to email me then her vote [...]
