At the risks of this blog being just me posting to myself, then making comments on what I already posted, let me tell you (me) about the dinner I made last night.
It was nothing groundbreaking, but it was fast, stupidly healthy, relatively inexpensive, and most importantly, delicious. I was walking by DiBruno Brothers and suddenly craved a grain-type salad with peas and raisins (who knows where that came from?) and popped in. I grabbed some sugar snap peas, pine nuts, some shrimp, pretty much anything that looked good. The grain became orzo pasta, and at the last second I grabbed an onion and a red bell pepper.
Long story short, I sauteed the shrimp in some olive oil after seasoning with fennel, cumin and paprika, then the onions & pepper, adding balsamic, reducing, adding raisins...
Anyway, all that tossed together with toasted pine nuts proved to be amazing. Like way better than I had imagined. I'll write up a recipe soon.
