Episode 20!!
Written by Rachel, Posted in A Cooking Show with Rachel O, Abundant Harvest Organics, This Week's Feast, Thoughts
On this, my 20th episode, I hope you like to laugh. I also hope you find bloopers as funny as I do. If not, I hope you like bacon. If not, I hope you like Sugar Snap Peas, roasted and salted organic Almonds, salty Parmesan Cheese, fresh organic Tomatoes, sour Lemons, and reduced Balsamic Vinegar. If none of this suits your fancy, um… you can just watch it for the bloopers. Yes, there are lots. I’m celebrating 20 episodes here! (In case you didn’t already know that I have fun at work.)
This dish is a lot like Pasta in a Pinch. A few different ingredients, slightly different sauce, and voilà , a new dish. If there’s something else you want to add from any week’s Abundant Harvest Organics box, go ahead! If you shop at the grocery store or farmers’ markets, or grow your own produce, feel free to make substitutions!
