Lucky People with Loaded Fridges
And yesterday, I was one of them. Guess I should be - or at least I should know I am - seeing I'm the one doing most of our grocery shopping. But you know how it is: sometimes, the fridge and vegetable basket is just one big, blank, empty nothing. Either that, or my brain is one big: but how on earth can I put these things together and make them into something good?
Last night, my brain was my friend (maybe it's all the studying I've been doing lately that's making it try harder?) and the fridge was well stocked with jewels of spring. So I had this for dinner: freshly shelled peas, avocado, finely sliced radishes, baby salad leaves, cucumber, croutons and crumbled bacon. A spritz of lemon, a glug of good olive oil, salt, pepper - and a spoonful of homemade mayo for the croutons. Welcome back in my kitchen, spring!:-)

Comments
Katie B - Thank you! Just popped by your blog, loved the concept:-) Yes, the pressure - and sometimes, it ends with a cheese sandwich, sometimes like this. I love it when it ends like this :)
Joey - in this case, very nice odds end ends - the worst part is when it's something like cold rice and shoddy salad leaves. And ketchup :)
Debbie - I take that as a compliment. And am not at all jealous of you having a garden, nooooo ;)
oh and i totally know the empty bag feeling :)
Andreaa - I like being an inspiration. I could grow used to that!;-)
Deborah - mmm, yes, the smell of spring!
NewYorkerByHeart - Tak!:-)
H. - Klejner? There's a recipe right here on my site - just do a search, I'm sure you'll find it! Or find it under the DANSK tag. Indeed, it's pretty common around here and I love 'em!
Patricia - thank you!
