In March, we planted some vegetables in our backyard. And when I say “we” I mean, my husband. My husband has a green thumb. I repeat, MY HUSBAND has a green thumb.
I have though, very much enjoyed the fruits of his labor. We happen to have basil coming out of our ears right now which is the perfect excuse to make some simple, Green Goddess Rice!
And for some weird reason, dicing avocados is extremely therapeutic for me. I should probably get that checked out.
This works as an excellent side. We ate it along with some chipotle black bean burgers last night.

I am wondering about the texture of this. Sounds interesting anyway. Love the photos you and Kristin post. Your little puppy IS really little next to that very large flower pot! Cute photos of Sean and wonderful that you have your own herb garden. I love reading about your lives! Love you, Grandmother
