Ho Hum.. here we go again!

Well, nothing too unusal tonight. Yes, two different meals, but the big deal is that I used  ALOT of my produce. I used the rest of last week’s potatoes, the new purple potatoes, a whole head of Matt’s garlic, the two green peppers that I got in my box, all of the green beans and half of the cherry tomatoes. Bob and I both have lunch leftover for tomorrow and the grands had quiche for dinner tonight. So, I think that was a productive food day.  I liked the quiche with the potatoes on the bottom (of the store bought pie crust).  Quiche:  Just eggs, (8) 3/4 c milk,1/2 c any kind of cheese ( I had parm). I used fresh spinach (that I sauteed ) ,green peppers, garlic and the cherry tomatoes halved. Dumped everything into the pie crust ,over the potatoes, except the tomatoes which I placed carefully on top of the mixture, cut side down.  It did take quite a while to cook. Probably one hour at 375. I put foil around the crust so it did not burn. I sauteed the beans in olive oil & garlic and then added the rest of the cherry tomatoes at the end and some balsamic vinegar. I roasted the purple potatoes with olive oil, garlic, dried rosemary  S & P for 45 min at 375. Oh, yes ,of course there was the meat entree, a grilled pork chop from Duma’s. I marinated that in a hodge podge of stuff from the fridge.  Lemons, fresh oregano, garlic, a hot pepper from Matt, olive oil & balsamic vinegar. I think that was it.  Bob was happy with it!  And, I am with you Tom, my hands smell like garlic most of the time.  I wish it was basil, that would be a lot better!
