This weeks basket arrived with plenty of exciting things to cook with. Butternut squash, red and green pears, collard greens, apples, mango.
I have fully committed myself to writing this blog. I'm a bit obsessed and i am very lucky K is home from work this week so I can get a start on this. I am so much fun shopping for props and looking through cookbooks. I feel there is a bit more of a justification to spend money on really beautiful cookbooks. Its research right?
Working from a small table in the kitchen with two kids running around me hasn't been the best of work environments. Today I found peace shooting on the side of the house by the garbage cans. It worked.
So on the agenda for this week:
Butternut Squash and Apple Soup with a Cider Cream
Collard Green Olive Pesto
I've never cooked with collard greens before. I was searching the internet for a good recipe I could make that maybe the kids would eat. I found this one and I had to give it a try. I made it and tossed with some pasta. Sawyer at 2 bowls and Violet ate her share too. Not bad for a couple of picky eaters. The next morning I tossed a few spoon fulls in while scrambling my eggs and then topped with a little feta. Delicious!
