My fridge remains rather bare, and while I should stick to principles and try to eek out a meal out of the leftovers and soggy leek in the bottom of the produce drawer, I decided to take a trip to our town's first downtown gourmet food market. They had their grand opening today. (I live downtown and am very excited about having a gourmet market close to me.)

I am still staying on the minimal side of things. Though due to slim pickin's in the wallet and a desire for a relaxing meal, I decided to supplement my fridge with new veggies.
I randomly picked a fresh bunch of asparagus and several red potatoes.
A perusal through Alice Water's "Vegetables" and I landed a recipe for simple asparagus soup. An assembly of Asparagus, red potato, onion and a dallop of creme fraiche. I think I will also have some baked tilapia dusted with dill on the side. And a salad with goat chese fritters ( goat cheese covered in italian bread crumbs and fried). And dessert: Chocolate mint ice cream. YUM!
The added bonus is that I have one more excuse to use my food mill.
A Green Evening!
