I was so glad to see my freezer filled with green beans, kale, hash browns, peas, potatoes, quinoa, medley and melange ~ It was a pretty picture, but them’s some pretty words, too ~  Last night I made a simple mix for Marco, for his return home from the gym and run ~  I prepped some bread (our favorite San Luis Sour Dough) with soft butter, garlic salt and sprinkled parmesan ~  boiled green beans, which surprised me when I began munching on them when they were done, drained and salted! that was a big win because it reminded me of working with Marsha and saying I would only munch on fresh greens while I was cooking, like green snap peas, which habit is long gone.  so that was a good surprise ‘ — i laid the potatoes down first in the pan, with frozen cubes of veg broth (!) for them to get the head start ‘ the melange was next and finally, the quinoa ~ they each sit really well and then stir and mash a little crossover together.  Broiled the bread just on and off practically, so not to mess it up!  Served with beautiful salad ~ garbanzo beans, the focus for protein, with 1 h.b. egg on top, and sliced olives ~ He loved it!
