So Much Mint
I had planted a few mint plants and they really have taken off. I had to do something with all of this mint besides dry it and use it for tea.
Chicken and Cabbage Salad With Fresh Mint (scroll half way down the page)
I saw this recipe in the newspaper a few weeks ago and just had to try it. I made it for a neighbor's potluck and it was so good. It's also really healthy and easy to make.
Mint Mojitos
These were also really good. I had made a whole pitcher, too much to drink in one night. The second night they were even better since the rum and sugar mix had had a lot of time to soak up all of the mint flavor.
Too bad I don't have an ice cream maker or I would give Martha's No-Cook Mint Ice Cream a try.

I'd have been glad to help you finish the Mojitos :)

We have loads and loads of mint. I lop a bunch of it off everytime I go by on the mower. That stuff spreads like fire.
