Pinot & Pineapple

As I told you last Wednesday, the tomatoes we received were on their last leg and had to be used ASAP.  So, that night, after work, I went to the market and got 1 pound each of ground beef and ground pork, 1 can each of black beans and kidney beans and a bottle of vegetable juice and set about making a big pot of chili.  For this dish, I used all the tomatoes, the tomatillos, the bell peppers and the onions.  The chili was fantastic and there was left overs for Thursday night’s dinner too.

So that only left me the patty pan squash, beets and mixed baby greens to work with.  The patty pans were sliced and added to a stir-fried chicken teriyaki dish on Friday night.  The beets were roasted and used in a salad with the mixed baby greens, pecorino romano and balsamic vinaigrette.  See the photos below…

Be sure to stop by tomorrow to see what we receive!
