Leftover Medley!
I don't want all that farm fresh produce going to waste! So I pulled out my tupperware filled with veggies & cooked up a spaghetti sauce. From the farmer's market I had a slightly used onion...a whole big fat zucchini just dying to be cooked, some questionable tomatoes, & half eaten peppers. I also had a few left over mushrooms from my mushroom sauce. So I simmered all those things in olive oil with some fresh basil also from the farmer's market, and some super fresh rosemary from my future mother-in-law's garden (don't tell her). I served it with leftover salad, & some bread that we transformed into garlic bread. Ooh la la! Oh & I don't wanna forget Charlie! He had leftover chicken with fresh spinach & and whole wheat pasta. I blended with some flax seeds (he loves them) & some chicken broth leftover from our whole chicken. Overall it was a success! And even though Charlie ate leftover chicken, I managed to go the entire Earth Day without eating meat. I enjoyed fruit & toast with my tea this morning, a salad for lunch, and you know my dinner. That's all for now, happy cooking!
