Chirmol

April 26, 2013

As many of you are fully aware, I have an exploding tomato population. I went a bit “Little House on the Prairie” thinking I needed to sow all my seeds to get me through the long, hard winter on the farm apparently. Well, now… I am reaping what I have sown. PUN. FULLY. INTENDED.

It’s mass chaos back there. I think the tomatoes get together in some sort of secret society at night while I’m sleeping, plotting to overthrow me. One day I may wake up to them all crouched down waiting to pounce (think: Lord of the Flies). OK, clearly I’ve gone off on a tangent……

It’s all about balance anyway, isn’t it? If you have a bit of something that you reserve only for holidays, all the more reason to serve healthy options to offset the indulgence….

It’s what I had on hand and about making the most of what I have until the pantry is fully stocked again. These chips are incredibly fast, require minimal effort and you don’t have to feel the least bit guilty if you finish the entire plate by yourself.
