Sometimes something
simple and comforting is all one needs for supper. Tonight was one of those
nights. A meal that can be on the table in 30 minutes or less (this took
slightly less) is aces in my book no matter what it is, but when it is this
soothing and delicious it certainly bears sharing. Mixed greens lightly tossed
with vinaigrette and a glass of chilled white wine was all the accompaniment
needed.
Bon Appetit!
