Le Diner


DSC_0161 
I love seafood so much.  I don't need much persuasion to enjoy fish tacos, ceviche, lobster, or crab legs.  You name it, and I probably love it.  Thanks to Hook Line & Sinker, we get our crab leg fix pretty regularly.  But last night, I wanted to stay in and make something delicious and quick.  Mussels!  I was inspired by the dish I saw on Camille's blog, but decided to forgo the pasta and make garlic green beans and roasted potatoes.

I've only cooked Mussels once before, and really who am I kidding?  Victor was chef, and I was sous.  So I looked up this recipe.  It was so simple, yet the results were outstanding.  I had always thought that mussels were a challenge to cook.  Cleaning beards?  (what?) No thanks!  It turns out, buying farm raised mussels only need a quick scrub.

The best part?  The whole meal was under $26.  I'm pretty sure I've never gotten out of Whole Foods for less.
