Green, I heard there was a green thing going on so I wanted in on it. I was so confused as to how I was going to make my green thing not 'so' and terribly 'so' all at the same time.
I had beet greens but they lost their green after cooking so I had to scramble something up.
I went for fresh made carrot pasta with a green bean pesto and a splash of alfredo. Who knows where this came from but side by side with a piece of grilled swordfish the flavors were able to do their rambunctious thing with out stepping on any toes.
I am submiting this to Girlichef for the BSI going on with green.
