We're getting close to day 60 of my vegan challenge now. Time just seems to fly by and I'm still sticking to my ovo-vegetarian diet, with less ovo and more vegetarian by the day.
Sometimes I still have weak moments, especially when handling salami. The other day I dreamt about tuna again. But I did not give in. Today I made pizza and almost took a bite of the ham, but didn't. Then I dug into my vegetarian pizza with lots of veggies and topped with smoked tofu and baby spinach and forgot about meat altogether. Shame I did not take a picture, it was sure a sight!
I'm emptying the fridge these days in order to have it as empty as possible while we're on holidays. I'm not too creative in the kitchen, just trying to get rid of as much parishables as possible. That includes making ramsons pesto and soon I'll have to freeze the extra spinach.
Oh, and in case you're wondering how does making pesto look like. It all starts like this:
RAMSONS (wild garlic) PESTO
Go into the forest, put on some sexy violet rubber gloves and pick your ramsons. Then come home, wash and drain the ramsons, chop it roughly and put into blender with virgin olive oil and some salt. If you have it, put in some pine nuts, too. Blend it well and store it in the fridge. It keeps a long time!
