Many of my dishes are one offs inspire by my obsessive attitude towards waste.  I had a package of frozen peas that had been in the freezer for months and a couple chunks of smoked pork shanks in the meat thing drawer were in there for longer than I feel comfortable admitting.  Also a couple huge beautiful leeks that I hadn't done anything with.  The food blogs are literally blooming with all these spring recipes and I saw a spring pea recipe a couple weeks back and remembered that.  So was born lunch today.  My own version of a spring pea soup made....with...frozen...peas..derp.

I put the shanks in some water with some onions and simmered them for a couple hours this morning to loosen them up and kill any bad stuff. heh.  Pulled all the meat off and into small pieces.  Sauteed that up with some diced carrots, garlic, celery, and half of one of the big leeks.  Added some chicken stock and let the carrots get a little soft.  I then stirred in some quinoa and let that simmer for about 10.  Stir some frozen peas in and let them come to temp and last but not least, chopped parsley.  Plated with cracked black pepper.  YUMM!.

This could also be made vegan very easily.  Veg stock and tofu would be killer.

You mean the lack of disposable packaging?  That ziploc has been used many times.

i got a brick of that selfsame tuna from Costco to last me through the endtimes

RAGER

I normally have Sacred Sea tuna on hand. Oregon line caught young tuna. Near zero mercury. It's not cheap, case only sales direct at like $160 or something. I split with somebody usually. My boss the last couple times. Right now they're doing half cases. If you're into it look em up.   I'm gonna buy a half case right now.

Don't feed the trolls... and don't be a pussy.

RAGER

Don't be. I just bought a full case. Price drop.

Renfield. I'd cop you some cans if you want. Dm. Me.

"Where do you get your tuna, man?"

"It's a satanic drug thing, you wouldn't understand."

Just looked, I'm sure that's great tuna but like $6 per can. Sold out though!
