Top Chef was at the Farmer’s Market today. It’s spring break for the kids, so they were there, too… which is why Paul and I weren’t able to stick around for the show and tasting.
I met Paul and the kids there (I came late from French class), where Paul filled me in that there was to be strictly no video recording and that Radhika had been in a scooter accident yesterday and given herself terrible black eyes. She told the crowd “always wear a helmet,” which, as a ‘learn from me example’ means she must have been really lucky.
In addition to the chefs, there were games.
But, at least while we were there, it was all about the food. I loved the big mirror reflecting the cooking area.
Richard was talking about halibut. That’s all I remember.
These blender bikes were pretty cool, too.
We brought home broccoli…
Carrots… (notice his face? I couldn’t get him to smile, until I asked him to talk about toilets…)
…and now he’s smiling.
And Cauliflower.
Here’s the question: what would you make?? All veggies together? Roasted Cauliflower? Broccoli cheese soup? A casserole?
Ideas and suggestions welcome!!

Cut them up and make a mini-ratatouile or put them with some yummy fish in foil (see Gwen’s blog) or better yet…steam the cauliflower and broccoli sprinkle with cumin and cinnamon and enjoy. Carrots…soup most definitely. What fabulous looking veg!

You make a casserole with all three ingredients. (Better Homes and Gardens cookbook but add ground chicken or small chicken chunks and maybe a little wild rice to it to get all food groups) But me I’m a fan of plan veggies.

I would roast the carrots, stir fry the broccoli with garlic in XV olive oil (I REFUSE to say EVO-Oooh) and dress with lemon, and use the cauliflower in a curry!
I like your blog very much. Thanks for visiting countrygirl/citygirl. :o)
