The most wonderful thing about having a garden is that I can walk outside and take only a few steps and within minutes have a delicious meal! It is especially convenient considering my last paycheck was exactly $7.
So when I got home from work today, I turned on my skillet and added 3 store bought ingredients: olive oil, garlic, and onion. Then I headed out to the garden and from it added:
purple jalepeno pepper
basil
majoram
red bell pepper
kale
eggplant
After that was done, I piled it on top of some wheat noodles that I had left over from the ratatouille. It left me feeling cool enough to write a cookbook.
It's great having a variety of ingredients to experiment with - new combinations of flavors can be fun and surprising! Really the only thing you have to learn is which things to add first and last, but that comes quickly.
