Pink chicken :( and sweet potatoes :)

 The other night, B made some sweet potatoes, cooked on the grill with diced onions and seasoning.  They were delicious and very filling.  We were talking about how we both do NOT like yams - you know the dish your crazy aunt always brings with the marshmallows melted on top? But then, it doesn't follow that we both liked the sweet potatoes.  Weird. 

Sweet potatoes, though they contain more vitamins and nutrients, aren't exactly the picture perfect vegetable of health.  Much like Corn.  Those vegetables like to take on the appearance of "fitting in" with the cool veggies, packed with vitamins and minerals and enzymes.  But the glycemic index on potatoes and corn is high, and they really are more of a carbohydrate posing as a vegetable. 

On another note: Does anyone else notice that ORGANIC chicken is tough once cooked? Chewy...and kind of a strange pink color? (not in an uncooked kind of way - it's almost too cooked, yet still a tinge of pink?)

Had to put this in, my happy hubby.  Notice the green lid to the Sriracha bottle on the bottom right corner? Ha.  Cracks me up.
