I had two leeks that were on their last day in the fridge. Even though I only recently discovered leeks they are my new favorite veggie! I couldn’t let them die in the trash – they deserve a grave in my belly
I cooked them up with a veggie mix that was also on it’s way out and some eggs. I love egg scrambles! Topped with lf cheese, hot sauce and ketchup.
Served with an English muffin – one with butta, one with pumpkin butta. And a dark chocolate calcium disk for dessert.
I grabbed a pear mid-morning to fuel me for some errands. This was the best pear I’ve had in a long time!

Have you ever been to Pearblossom in the high desert? The have ” u-pickem” pear orchards up there. It’s like jaking bites of honey.

Ever since I started cooking with my rice cooker, leeks have been indispensable to my diet!

bahaha. love the title.
leeks intimidate me for some reason! i’m not sure i know how to prepare them?

The recipe that introduced me to leeks is still my go-to recipe for leeks: Vegetarian Times’ Sweet Potato and Leek Gratin. So yummy!
That said, I definitely need to try them in an egg scramble! Looks delish…
Lauren says
Oh where oh where can I find these calcium disks??

I got them at CVS, but have seen them other places too.

I can’t believe how sunny and green it is in that last photo! Wanna trade places? I’m sure you really miss the cold/ice/snow. Just admit it! 🙂
P.S. I don’t think I’ve ever had a leak before, but now I want to try it. What does it even taste like?
runeatrepeat says
It’s like a mild onion.

Oooh I haven’t had leeks in SO long! I will add them to my shopping list when I next go 🙂
