I use it in vegetable wraps. I get the big cheap flour
tortillas from Trader Joe's, and stuff them with whatever
seems right. Peeled, steamed, and chopped broccoli is
very good. Caramelized yellow onions is a must. Cubed
Chinese eggplant (the upper half only) is good if cooked.
After frying the onion, I add the eggplant, cover and
cook for a little while, then wrap.

My best combo was caramelized onions, chopped steamed
broccoli, and thinly sliced raw spinach.

I add whatever hot sauce I've got. Right now, that would
be Trader Joe's red jalapeno sauce.
