a food journal
I’m switching things up a bit today.
You see, normally for a long holiday weekend (especially Memorial Day – aka, the unofficial kickoff of summer), I’d plan chips, salsa, and a boatload of margaritas. Margaritas are definitely my hot weather cocktail of choice, and probably my favorite boozy drink all year round. So, while I could stick in my comfort zone and share another recipe for margaritas, I’ve decided to take things to a more tropical place. And I’m not mad about it….
Whew. I am in need of some freaking green foods today.
I spent the weekend away with some of my closest girlfriends, and we packed our schedules full of eating, drinking, and dancing. Lots of cocktails were had, along with even more laughs. It was wonderful….
Today’s recipe can be classified as food I never eat.
What do I mean by that? Well, when it comes to lentils, I almost exclusively eat them in soups and stews (see here and here and here). I rarely eat them in any other capacity, let alone in cold salad form. And I don’t know why! Because I love them….
I hereby proclaim this to be the springiest of spring pastas. And it’s flippin’ yummy.
I have a serious love affair going on with fresh lump crab right now. I mean, I always have, but the love has intensified recently. I can’t get enough….
