I felt like I was in an episode of Chopped. I went into the kitchen this morning thinking I was going to make chicken taco salad. Alas, my basket had boneless skinned chicken thighs, an eggplant and a can of pork and beans.

Eggplant? Pork and beans? Taco salad? Ummm noooo. So I went into the kitchen and grabbed the good stuff.

Baked the chicken with fresh herbs from the garden. They flourished thru the winter months here. After baking, topped with a splash of balsamic vinegar.

Pork and beans, got doctored with, red onion, jalapeño pepper (from the garden), some chopped celery, a little mustard and brown sugar.

Sautéed the eggplant with some Mediterranean spice mix.

And I also made frog eyed salad. Enough of that for days!

Blaze says...this isn't all the beans? That was his fav.
