Sunday, the Mr. helped me prep a couple of dishes for the week.
First up was pasta with a creamy vegan Alfredo. I used this recipe for the sauce, and wow! It is delicious! The only things I didn’t include were the hemp hearts.
It doesn’t look like much, but the flavor is on point.
The second dish I prepared was this Easy Lemon Cucumber Salad with a Lemon Vinaigrette.
One of my colleagues is known for her green thumb, and she likes to experiment with growing different produce.
This year, she planted lemon cucumbers. She took a bunch to work to share with us, and I grabbed a few.
I had to google what to make with them and found the recipe I linked above.
I liked that it called for only a few ingredients (the vinaigrette items aren’t pictured).
The Mr. did the chopping. We didn’t peel the cucumbers per what I’d read online.
Thank heavens for the Mr.’s willingness to help!
It made for an easy and delicious little salad.
I’ll eat a bowl of this along with my Alfredo this week for lunch!

I decided to stop by the open air stand below Sikes and Kohns close to Troy. They have been advertising Strawberry Onions was very curious ! They plant onions are the strawberry plants to keeps insects off of the strawberries without pesticides!
I have never heard of strawberry onions. How interesting!!
I’ve never heard of lemon cucumbers! Do they taste like regular cucumbers?
They do! My coworker said she picks them b while they are still crunchy. They are so good!
