Green Herb Dip

This recipe (Barefoot Contessa at Home) uses the same herbs as this salmon, so I had extra herbs in the refrigerator.  I didn’t have any scallions left, so I used freeze dried shallots instead.  I served it with some new-fangled hippie chips with soy and flax in them, so that made it healthy, right?  Right?!

Creamy Rosemary Polenta

Consider this a dressed-up version of grits.  Yum.  I made a half-batch, and it only took half of the recommended time to cook, so this was a very quick side dish.  Next time, though, if I make a half-batch, I’ll be sure to saute the garlic first.  The cornmeal cooked so quickly that the garlic was still pretty crunchy by the time it was served.  Still, this was excellent.
