Chris had to work late yesterday which gave me the opportunity to have a single girl supper, which I miss a bit as I usually try to cook us a traditional meal. In other words, I am not standing in front of the fridge eating all sorts of weird stuff anymore. When I was living alone, I could have broccoli rabe five nights in a row and no one would be the wiser! Last night I sautéed some garlic in extra virgin olive oil and added a fresh trimmed artichoke together with some salt, pepper, lemon and about a half an inch of water and steamed it in a saucepan with the lid on for 30 minutes. I also roasted an entire bunch of asparagus which I had tossed in olive oil and seasoned with salt, pepper and lemon. Utter bliss.
