So, for some reason, even though I've recently started working full-time hours at work, I have been motivated to cook real dinners for myself. Or at least a real main dish. I have featured two of these below:
 |
The artichokes I got from my garden
and marinated myself. |
 |
| The pizza I made using my artichokes, basil, and some farmers market tomatoes, peppers, swiss chard, and turkey sausage and then I bought some feta cheese from good old TJ's to throw on top! A-ma-zing. Quite easily the best pizza I've ever had. Oh yeah, and the bread is Italian herb focaccia bread I also got from TJ's and just sliced in half and oiled with my farmers market buttery olive oil. |
 |
| Kale...also from the farmers market and my first time trying it actually! |
 |
Pecans, garlic, lemon, nutmeg and freshly
grated parmesan cheese to go with it! |
 |
White beans (sure wish I had actually
cooked them long enough...) |
 |
| My almost superb beans and kale. Ha! Not too shabby though. Kale turned out to be completely edible. I was worried since it's green and supposed to be pretty good for you. Happily, it's quite mild with a good texture to boot! |
