So two posts in one day for me has got to be a record. I complained about the weather, but I tried to make up for it by making a "harvest" work for lunch. I went out on the slurpy that is my back patio right now, and cut off several scallions to use in my lunch, egg drop soup. I had no idea that these would stick around for the winter, and I was just plain too lazy to pull them at the end of the season. I should have known, since they're called Evergreen Bunching Onions. As measly as it is, at least I have something positive to write about! Also, Happy Pi Day to all!
I told my husband it was Harvest Monday, and he asked if I was going to post a picture of the wings he made the other night. I told him we didn't do any harvesting there, but he still thought they were pretty awesome, and I have no qualms with boasting on my husband's amazing cooking skills. So here was Saturday's dinner, some INCREDIBLE wings my husband made for us!
Check out everyone else's harvests, or how they're using old harvests at Daphne's Dandelions!
The wings look yummy! Give your husband an 'atta boy' for those!
ReplyDeleteI love challenging myself to go find a usable harvest for meal prep during the dark days of winter. It gets easier as the greens start growing again, but during the lean days of February and March -the challenge can be tricky! The egg drop soup AND the wings both look good. :D
ReplyDeleteKatrina- Thanks! Will do! :)
ReplyDeletekitsapFG- Thanks! It is definitely a challenge. I've got an Aerogarden that got me through this winter, which has given me plenty of salad, but I can't keep photographing the same thing while trying to make it look interesting! I look forward to seeing some more green peek up outside as the season gets going!
Those wings look absolutely wonderful!! Oh...and your soup looks great too!!
ReplyDeleteHopefully you'll have good weather today and be able to get some gardening done. It was supposed to be sunny here yesterday...but, the sun did not come out until I came home from the plots..go figure!! Today is looking a bit more promising :)
Robin- Thanks! There's still white stuff on the ground, but it should be gone by this afternoon, and tomorrow's high is 64... Sorry you didn't get anymore sun!
ReplyDeleteI'd certainly not turn those wings down. And the soup looks good too. I hadn't been cooking soups in the last couple of weeks but for some reason I made two today.
ReplyDeletesoup looks wonderful. I made some myself last night. Hope your weather turns soon.
