Notes: So Wednesday's will be known from now on as side dish Wednesday's. I am thinking we are up for a side dish thinking middle of the week simple straight forward direct and to the point.
For this first side dish I chose something extremely simple and think I have turned it into a tropical melody, tossed in a citrus dressing. As with most of the recipes I post if you prefer, you can devise your own combination using other fruits even dried fruit such as papayas, mangoes and shredded coconut.
Who other from our H50 characters could create such a concoction, none other than Dr. Max Bergman. It has all the ear marks, multiple ingredients, complex flavors, yet simple to put together and straight forward.
