How to use my herbs

I’m staying on track with our Supper Plan this week, so
dinner Tuesday (and lunch Wednesday) was no surprise – whole
wheat spaghetti with lemon, basil, and salmon
and green
beans with creamy garlic dressing
. Such
a wholesome combo that really hit the spot.
And I didn’t have a moment of “what’s for dinner?” stress.

I also didn’t have a moment of “wilted
herb stress” (which results from store-bought herbs that quickly perish)
because on Sunday I finally got around to starting my container garden. So far I’ve potted basil, parsley, mint, and
a jalapeo plant. I’m very excited for how I’ll use my herbs and have found myself browsing around for mojito and salsa recipes in my
spare time.
