Banana with peanut butter
Granny Smith apple
Angel hair pasta topped with a variety of greens sautéed in olive oil and garlic
Fried squash flowers. These edible flowers were a surprise treat in my CSA basket today. I dipped them in almond milk and flour spiced with Hungarian paprika, salt and pepper and fried them in olive oil. I didn't have pasta sauce for dipping, so I just sprinkled a little hot sauce on them. They were delicious!
I also had panini of sautéed greens, roasted green peppers, red onion, green olives and Daiya cheddar slices on ciabatta bread. Of course there was hot sauce as well.
