This week on the Menu we have:
We've reached the end of asparagus season. If you live in an area where it's still plentiful, check Recipes for more ideas.
Leave avocados on the counter until ripe, then refrigerate until needed.
Note: Pesto keeps very well in the fridge - level off the top in the container and add a thin layer of olive oil to the top. It helps keep the flavor fresh - true for commercial and homemade.
Apology: I try very hard not to use commercial products (other than condiments) - and this week I have 2: pesto and taco sauce. But a taco salad just needs taco sauce - and it's easy summer cooking.
