day #11: i had 18. eggplant curry for dinner at an indian restaurant in austin - delicious! it was laurie's first time eating indian food, and she loved the samosas and chicken tikka masala that she had.
day #12: lunch in the cafeteria included roasted vegetables: carrots, 19. parsnips (something i would never eat on purpose, so this was a good thing for my challenge), and 20. beets.
day #13: i made pasta with garlicky broccoli rabe for dinner, and i'd never bought 21. broccoli rabe before (it is a leafy green that is also called rapini. do not be fooled in the grocery store when it is called rapini and you have to google whether those things are the same.). this recipe is so good! garlicky and a little spicy and the broccoli rabe is delish in it, though i quasi-halved the recipe and ended up with not enough broccoli rabe for the amount of pasta i made. so, if anything, up the broccoli rabe. this will definitely go into my recipe rotation! love smitten kitchen recipes.
day #14: after work i had a one-woman happy hour on my patio: a beer and a little 22. seaweed salad from kroger. ruby watched the goings-on and we both enjoyed the 70 degree weather.
it is harder and harder to eat vegetables i haven't yet had this month! i have some brussels sprouts in my fridge…but after that, i may have to start trying a little harder to get to #30.
