My friend Jenelle came over tonight. We both love animals and she is a vegetarian. She owns an amazing spa in Lexington called Jenelle Marie Esthetics (http://jenellepetit.com/) and I wanted to make her a healthy spa-like meal. I started by boiling some red potatoes (the littlest ones I could find). Once they were close to done I added the broccoli for 5 minutes and then added some green beans just for a minute. The point here is to just soften the veggies. Make sure they stay nice and bright green. While the water was heating up to boil potatoes I made the dressing with EVOO, Dijon mustard, a splash of red wine vinigar (or lemon juice), taragon, dill, and some diced red onion. Once the veggies were done I drained them, cut the potatoes in half, added some fresh plum tomatoes and tossed with the dressing. Easy peasy one pot meal that is light and delicious.

Tarragon is such an underused spice...I had no idea what it tasted like until I went to France and picked up some tarragon mustard for a picnic. So I'm imagining that sort of picnic in Provence or Auvergne as I'm reading this post, and it's amazing how relaxing that is.
