Sometimes you just need something simple like this asparagus and pea saute.
Of course, there are days when we need a little something cute.
Other times, we need something funny.
And there are always those times when we need something cozy, cuddly, and adorable.
And there are definitely times when I personally just need a dog. But this is not a post about getting a dog. I will not make this post about getting a dog.
Because this is a post about when you need something simple, delicious, and fresh.
Or just plain green. I think you know what I mean if you already saw yesterday’s post.

Here’s the great thing about this super easy, simple, but elegant saute. You can make extra and store it in the fridge to be used in anything! So if you happen to have no other groceries in the house, and you need a last minute lunch that’s delicious but low maintenance…you can pair this with a spoonful of goat cheese (my current obsession), fresh bread, and a little more butter and call it a meal!
