This weekend, I realized how much fresh stuff I had in my refrigerator. I knew I had to use it up quickly so I thought, why not try making some of those new things.
Saturday, I made fresh pesto, chicken, tomato pizza on a whole wheat crust (crust was from Market Basket and it was good!). This was easy and SO good. It will be happening a lot more.
Sunday, I tried my hand at chicken and rice soup, minus the chicken. It turned out okay...the rice didn't cook as thoroughly as I'd have liked. It takes a lot longer for brown rice to cook, apparently. I froze half of the batch.
Sunday evening, I wanted a little snack. So I threw two tomatoes and one very hot jalapeno pepper from my friend's garden into my food processor with some minced garlic and diced onion. What I got was a very spicy, very fresh salsa! I spread some cheese and frozen corn on corn tortilla chips and baked them until the cheese was melty and gooey. Combined with the salsa, YUM!
