salad of the week...and some fish action.

we are very lucky to have a Papa that goes fishing.

even luckier that he shares the bounty with us!

tenacious D loves her some fresh fish...big time.

oh yeah. love me some sea creature.

so glad this wee baba-ganoush is feeling better and eating again. 

(really need to sort that blank wall behind her noggin.)

oh and to go with the fresh crumbed fishy (other than peas...because the broccoli from the garden had a team of caterpillars inhabiting it and honestly my stomach couldn't handle if i missed one...)

..was my go to salad of the week.

so easy.

so don't be surprised if when you ask me for dinner i bring this puppy.

basil, sweetcorn, tomato pasta salad.

what i do...

bring a big pot of water to boil add salt, pasta and a corn cob...(huskless...of course)

while that is cooking chop some lil' tomatoes in halves or quarters, some spring onions and tear up some basil leaves.

when pasta is cooked. drain and take out corn cob and chop off kernels. add some olive oil to pasta to stop it sticking together (lordie i hate that) 

add some crushed garlic (about 2 tsp) and loads of cracked black pepper and some salt to taste. 

add toms, basil, corn, spring onions and grate over a generous amount of parmesan cheese.

the sweetness of the corn, tangy toms, and moreish parmesan. winning.
