Culinary Indecision

Time for lunch... if the photo here looks a little odd, it's because I couldn't quite figure out what I wanted for lunch. In the end, a little bit of everything got tossed in...
  • sweet potato (backyard garden)
  • green onions (backyard garden)
  • green peppers (backyard garden)
  • mushrooms (grown 40 miles away)
  • leftover corn in the fridge (farmers' market, then I canned it over the summer)
  • leftover brown rice in the fridge (grown 100 miles away)
  • leftover steamed green beans (backyard garden)
  • peanut (not local, but I don't know - it sounded good)
The fresh veggies were sauteed in a little olive oil (farmers' market) and salt before I tossed in the already cooked leftovers to heat through. I obviously didn't have a theme (for goodness sake, I couldn't even decide on a starch so I did BOTH rice and potatoes), but I have to say, it totally worked.

Excuse me while I finish gobbling it up...

LOL, that's how I end up with soup. I hardly ever know what it's going to be when I start. Glad your dish turned out tasty.

Chile - Ever since, I've been doing massive experiments for lunches. How can you go wrong when you start out with good food? :)
