6 leaves of basil, torn

The tomatoes are starting to get a lot better now, so they don't need much else.

I cleaned out some stuff from my fridge. Now I'm on my way to the market to restock. On the way over, I'll have to rethink this system.

I do the same thing when I get to the store....it looks good, it goes in the basket and then I stare at for a few days before I figure out what to do with it. It usually happens with meat though, not veggies.
Meat just all looks the same to me, and the veggies promote that "if I don't get it now, it'll be gone next time" mentality. Having said that, I just discovered ground turkey that has to go... ;-)
"I don't buy food with a plan to cook it, I buy food because it looks good & then I have to find some sort of use for it while it still looks good."
I can relate to this. That's how one starts to get innovative with cooking I guess.
Love your quiche. I need to make this soon. :)
I can relate to that as well. Last week I roasted some zucchini that was probably a little too far past its "best by" date--I felt ill for a couple of days, so I learned my lesson. Must plan more!
Your quiche is gorgeous!
Thanks! Again: super-easy! (I love premade puff pastry)
Murasaki: that's a nice interpretation. It seems so much better than: I'm a food shop-aholic! :-)
Amanda: I hope it wasn't too bad :-( How did you prepare it?
Tomato salad and a quiche??? How good it sounds. And with your quiche, even better. The quiche looks amazing!
Gorgeous pictures - that salad looks perfect for a hot summer day like today was, here in Denver.
Zucchini quiche sounds delicious!!!!!
Liz: it was one of the tastiest ways to clean my fridge! :-)
