Fried Egg in Tortilla

Somehow thinking back to mom’s cooking I think a few things: butter and cholesterol mostly. Still a fried egg nearly boiled crisp in butter with some fresh wild garlic and on a corn tortilla instead of gummy white bread makes it a little updated, yet still comfort food.

Greens and Walnuts

Boiled some green beans with walnuts and some balsamic-vinegar-laced water, some tofu turned in some onions, more of that odd golden yam and the broccoli.

Macaroni and Cheese with Brussels Sprouts Salad

Cabbage salad of grated brussel sprouts, carrots and green onion (lightly cooked) mixed with mayonnaise.
Tomato on potato-dill bread and a mac and cheese with a green onion and prima donna maturo Holland cheese.

Dark-leaf and romaine lettuce, radish, mushrooms, walnuts, alfalfa sprouts, green onions and tomatoes. Getting locally grown produce in season is wonderful to grab.
