What I had for dinner tonight-Quinoa and Peas
I am trying to harvest and cook in the same day. Something that has always been a challenge for me. I should add that I am also an amateur in the kitchen. So I will be cooking with simple recipes and will be posting what I am cooking, as sort of as a challenge to myself.
Tonight I sauteed fresh peas. I used about 1 tablespoons of butter and heated that up in a saucepan along with onions and garlic from the garden. I added the peas, strings removed, and cooked them for 10 minutes. They were cooked, but sill crunchy.
Before I started the peas, I cooked the quinoa substituting chicken stock for the water, in rice cooker for about 20 minutes. It was delicious.

That looks yummy, Michele. I picked my first snap peas this week too, hopefully there will be many more.
