mmm, i love fresh green beans! when i worked at the garden last summer, we’d snack on raw ones all day.
Sending happy vibes for a better day. Maybe some green-grape Chardonnay tonight if needed?
I’d have to go with avocados, but I like most green things.
I pinned that quinoa recipe – thanks for sharing!

it’s a great recipe – i pinned it after i saw that my sister made it!
I’ve been on a huge quinoa kick lately – can’t get enough of the stuff. I’ll have to try that recipe, it looks so good!

i’ve been eating a lot of quinoa lately too! for some reason i am being drawn to quinoa recipes. i’m ok with it though!
I had my first asparagus of the season last night. So good! I can’t wait for more.

i love asparagus season! we grilled some more last night and it was PERFECT.
I don’t think I’ve ever steamed asparagus – I always roast or saute it. I will have to try that out. Roasting makes me SO impatient.

i usually prefer to roast almost any veggie, but steaming takes almost no time, which is what i was going for last week.
You are very welcome on the fish.
I love asparagus and green beans…both roasted!

Well, I LOVE asparagus!! I would also list green beans, spinach, and broccoli. And mint ice cream!

Favorite Green food right now is Broccoli! I also like spinach.
