Summer foods
Holy deliciousness! We went to Jean Georges for our anniversary last weekend and I fell. in. love. with this yellowfin tuna appetizer. Found the recipe and made it last night for today's lunch (with some substitutions of things I had on hand). It the perfect lunch/dinner on a hot day!

Changes I made: used about 15oz yellowfin tuna, cut the total olive oil to 3 Tbs, tripled the radishes and daikon (to give it more volume with basically no calories), substituted 2 limes-worth of lime zest for the leaves in the syrup, cut the sugar down to 2 tbs, subbed apple cider vinegar for champagne vinegar (and cut the amount since it's stronger -- replaced with a bit more soy sauce), used chili paste instead of chili oil, used fresh Chinese chilies instead of dried.
1/4 of the recipe comes out to about 400 calories, 22 grams of fat, 24g carbs, 7g fiber, 32g of protein and is a HUMONGOUS serving. So yummy (and I am normally hesitant about raw fish)!
