Whoa, it's been a while.
No recipes today, but rather a comment regarding the simple pleasure of good food. Today for lunch, I sat down to 5 mini plates of food, or "tapas" as they are commonly called in the Spanish eating tradition. My tapas were simply tiny portions of leftovers that were taking up too much room in my refrigerator and therefore, needed to be eaten. Among the plates were: a couple slices of tomato and 1 slice of fresh mozzarella, drizzled with balsamic vinegar; a couple roasted spears of asparagus, lightly seasoned; half of a superbly fresh avocado diced and salted; fresh salad greens topped with one spoonful of homemade chicken salad; and 1/2 cup of American chop suey.
Doesn't that sound nice? Doesn't it sound better than leftovers? Next time you look in the fridge, think tapas, for a meal that not only provides a variety of tastes, but also cleans out the refrigerator in the process.
