Asparagus

I hear that asparagus is good for you!

I bought some organic asparagus and followed a BBC recipe : preheat a griddle pan until [smoking] hot. Toss the asparagus spears with one tablespoon of the olive oil and season with salt and black pepper. Place the asparagus onto the hot griddle pan and cook for 2-3 minutes until charred and just tender. Remove from the pan and set aside.

Actually it took more like 6-8 minutes as I didn't cook to char or pre-heat the pan to smoking-hot.

Added to half a chopped-up organic chicken breast which I cooked in the SolarDom last night - very succulent - and half a bag of Tatsoi salad, some cherry tomatoes, olives, red pepper, sun dried tomato, and my special apple and mango vinaigrette.

Started with some special bread from Tesco and hummous with seeds from Goodness Direct. Oh, and sunflower sprouting seeds.

Yesterday had roasting trout with sundried tomato butter and bulgar wheat with blush tomatoes and a veg juice with beetroot, carrot, apple, celery, spinach and a little ginger.

Previous night had organic chicken hot with quinoa cooked in bouillon. Half a bag of leeks, beans and cabbage fried up with usual red onion, garlic and fresh leeks. Had vegetable soup in the juice bar with brown bap and hummous and freshly squeezed orange juice.
