Tandoori shrimp and a zucchini and tomato casserole.

The joy that happens when I actually remember to thaw a piece of fish, have lots of fresh choices on hand, and don't work late. From the bottom up: baby lettuce, pink grapefruit, baby sweet pepper, salmon quick seared with olive oil and a pan sauce/dressing of lemon juice, balsamic, honey, and Southern Comfort. Killer combo!
Plus, I got a trip down memory lane as I was slicing the grapefruit segments. I've watched my mother and grandmothers segment citrus fruit endlessly over the years for the fruit salad required at every holiday meal. 100_0999.jpg |

This turned into a green and orange salad without actual planning. Baby lettuce, kiwi, cucumber, avocado, orange sweet baby bells, chicken breast, sliced orange, and pan sauce/dressing of bacon drippings, mustard, honey, orange juice. Yep, I ate the bacon while making the salad.

Just about all I accomplished today was cooking.
Breakfast for lunch: baby yukon golds, baby bellas, onions, roasted red peppers, spicy italian sausage, and a runny egg. 100_1016[1].jpg Late Supper: Fast but tasty sauce made from canned italian tomatoes, roasted red peppers, a big spoonful of pesto, and spicy italian sausage, over angel hair with fresh grated parm. 100_1018[1].jpg |

Connielynn- Can I just say I've been really enjoying your posts of things you've been cooking- you seem to have a fresh style and use lots of veggies. Keep it up! Healthy for you and entertaining for the rest of us, haha!

Thank you. I try to cook fresh each night. I do fall back into the lazy / tired rut sometimes, but fresh tastes better.

I've been cooking fast and eating dinner on the porch every evening. Last night I had salmon, and the cat was very attentive.
100_1022.JPG Tonight it was hot in the kitchen, so I quickly sauteed baby bellas, onions, a handful of dry salami, and mozzarella. Spread it on some nutty bread and topped with avocado. Quickly grilled. Awesome! 100_1023.JPG 100_1024.JPG |

Asparagus and peppers with hidden bits of garlic and avocado (the hidden bits got spread on the toast). Marinated olives, dates, and just roasted walnuts.

Sunday lunch, since I slept through the breakfast hours. And yes, I'm southern, so egg sandwhiches are on white bread with a layer of Hellmans.

Basic shrimp salad: shrimp, a touch of Hellmans mayo, capers, pepper, and fancy baby lettuce.

A warm salad for supper. Sauteed mushrooms, onions, and dry salami over baby lettuce with a poached egg on top.

Heading out of town for a few days, so I've been using up the odds and ends out of the frig.
Chicken, onion, mushroom, bitter greens stir fry. 100_1040[1].jpg Mushroom melt on some awesome grainy bread from Aldi. 100_1041[1].jpg |

I picked up some pastries from a beloved local bakery for Mother's Day lunch today. My sister sent me home with a few that I just had to get a shot of before they're gone.
[Some sort of custard thing, a mini cannoli, and a mini chocolate covered cannoli.]
