Jen over at Peas and Crayons has kept up with the theme of the month. So along with March Madness we've got March gets green too! So here a few mean, lean, green dishes that we've enjoyed lately in the Crazy Cooking Couple Kitchen!
Breakfast
Did you know that March 2nd was Dr. Seuss's birthday? And Seuss was his middle name. It was Theodor Seuss Geisel and for his birthday we celebrated with green eggs and ham.
Jen is still on this sushi kick. And I finally tried sushi. Go ahead and give me a round of applause. No? Oh ok : ( But since Jen pushed herself out of her fitness comfort zone I decided to push myself out of my food comfort zone and actually try sushi. Granted it was just a cucumber roll but it is a start!
Dinner
We made "Nonna's Chicken" again. A recipe that Jen got from her grandma. We make this at least every other week because it is so darn easy not to mention delicious! We had it on a WIAW before and asked people to guess what the sauce was. None one guess correctly... so now that you want to make Nonna's chicken we will tell you.

PEACE, LOVE, AND PIZZA,
I love that you made green eggs and ham to honor Dr. Seuss! A diner in NYC was serving them for the occasion so my friend and I went there for lunch. They servers wore cat-in-the-hat hats and read us stories. It was so much fun, even though we were the only people in there over 10 years old!
ReplyDeleteLove it!! That is OK that you were the oldest there. That just means you know more Seuss stories ;-)
DeleteGreen eggs, huh...pretty tricky! I would have 'greened' them another way but yours is much more colorful!
ReplyDelete:) How would you have greened them?
DeleteIs it weird that I knew it was his birthday? Lol! Actually my niece told me because they wore crazy socks to Kindergarten on his big day.
ReplyDeleteHahaha that is awesome!

ReplyDeleteWe are so addicted to basil too. It is awesome!
