supper for one




Supper time, such a nice time for eating and a bad time for pictures, for me and my kitchen anyway. Here are eggs baked in french lentils with a little parmesan on top. The lentils are cooked with kale, onion, oregano, thyme, celery, hot pepper. It was really good. I made it yesterday, too, but it was better today. Yesterday the eggs were a little firm in the middle, not quite as creamy as I would have liked. Today they were just liquid in the center but not watery, the white was soft and creamy. I don't usually make the same thing twice in a row, I guess I've just been feeling a little listless for the past few days, and this seemed so comforting and nourishing. Since J. has been out of town I have been eating more vegetables and way less meat, but I'm not trying to refer to the holiness of my diet with the backdrop or anything, that was just a newspaper clipping on the counter. This would totally not qualify as dinner for him, he would eat it, but with a pork chop.
