Day 437 : Fast Easy Fresh Green Meal for Earth Day

Did you do your part to give back to the environment today? I hope so!

I thought in honor of Earth Day we would do a green fast easy fresh meal, of course with some cheese involved. So what goes into our green dish?

Asparagus
Baby Broccoli
Kale
Swiss Chard
Ramps
EVOO
Parmesan
Herbs
Garlic
Basil
Slivered roasted almonds

Grab your asparagus and baby broccoli and brush with EVOO, basil, sel de la guerande and throw on a stovetop grill. Get a nice char on each side, about 4 to 5 minutes per side. While that is happening, dice up the swiss chard, ramps, basil, slivered almonds, and kale and toss in a saute pan with EVOO, some fresh rosemary, thyme, sea salt and black pepper. Cover and cook over low heat for ten minutes. Take the sauteed greens off and topped with the asparagus and baby broccoli. Grate Parmesan over the top and sprinkle basil leaves and ground some black pepper. Enjoy with a glass of crisp white and the hope that Spring is on the way finally.
