Trying something new

[vanillafluffy]

This evening, Mb served chicken and rice with some turnip greens, all courtesy of the food bank. I've never had turnip greens before in my life, but these were simmered all day with bacon, and as we all know, Bacon makes everything better. I may not have followed through with my "veggies every day" resolution, but I've at least tried a few new ones this year: turnip greens, fried okra and butternut squash, all of which I liked.

We had French onion soup with salads for lunch. Salad had cooked chicken and and ginger dressing, which was nommy. (Did I mention Mb got a 5-lb package of boneless, skinless chicken breasts?) I need to hang with Mb more, her cooking is definitely healthier than what I eat when left to my own devices.

TTFN.

Ahhhhh! Onion soup! Must make onion soup sometime soon! It's the right time of year for it and there's some really good stock in the freezer (hare and rabbit in fact). I've now got an onion soup craving - which is bad at 7am!

But! If you have the cravin at 7AM, that gives you hours to let it simmer into nommines.
