Spinach - breakfast, lunch and dinner

Yes, it's May and yes, it was a snowy, rainy day.  The day could not decide if it wanted to snow or rain. Despite the large puddles on the land, I am glad we have the greenhouse.
We welcome the green the water has given us!



Today we have an abundance of spinach!


Let's see what we can use it for all in one day....

Breakfast - a vegetable scramble of egg, a little bit of cheese, chopped onion, tomato and of course, spinach. 




Lunch - spinach pesto. Instead of basil, I used spinach.  Instead of pine nuts , I used walnuts. Make it like your favorite recipe with these substitutes and you won't regret it. 

Cream cheese on one side, pesto in the middle and Colby/cheddar cheese on the other.... butter the outside and grill. 


Great with apple slices. 


Dinner - spinach salad. 

Spinach, strawberries, goat cheese, walnuts and red onions.


Served with grapefruit and fish... imitation crab legs.  
 

Ended the day with decadence. Magic bars, which is a cup of crushed graham crackers mixed with 1/4 cup melted butter pressed into an 8 inch pan. Top with whatever you have in the freezer. I had coconut, walnuts, white and semi-sweet chocolate chips, and m&m's.  Press. Top the whole thing with sweetened condensed milk and bake at 350* for 25 minutes. (I put the m&m's on after it came out of the oven)


Tomorrow the sun is said to be making an appearance.

peace
