I made two flavorful entrees, fuel for hiking later in the morning.
First, a Vegetable Fritatta with red onion, a little bacon and chorizo, and Thai basil. When served, this was folded in half, like an omelete, sealing in the flavor and holding the heat.
And French Toast, with caramelized nectarines. I reserved just a little of the bacon/chorizo drippings for frying this toast - it gave a salty, smokey flavor, offering a contrast to the sweetness of the fruit syrup.
George cooked green beans from the Vietnamese market. I packed the left-overs in my backpack, to enjoy while hiking up to Hardy Falls later in the morning.
