Spring stuff - the diet's out the window now!

[CarolAnn]

Thursday was the farmer's market, and I decided some spring traditional foods were worth the cost in calories, since I only do this once or twice a year.

Yesterday I had a tender bunch of steamed purple asparagus with just a bit of basil flavored white sauce on top. Yummmm!

Today, I made a batch of wilted lettuce with bacon & spring onions for lunch, and tonight I'm making creamed peas and new potatoes. Next, it's got to be a spring pasta salad with the tomato, radishes, red pepper and the last of the spring onions. . . to use up the last of the farmer's market stuff while it's fresh!

Do you celebrate the spring bounty, and if so . . . what's your favorite recipe?

Dang, if all that "rabbit food" you ate isn't also diet food, what is?? :o

Ah, DM - it's not the rabbit food that's my problem so much as the stuff I put ON the rabbit food! ;)

That white sauce turns directly into butt fat! :P

It can't be the "white sauce", cuz i have the butt fat and i don't use the white sauce!! 8)
