Qui a faim?

This is kind of fitting, seeing how I just taught my younger students all kinds of emotions including "I am hungry/thirsty." (Sidenote, I hope I am not getting sick just before the weekend hits, as coughing, a runny nose and sore throat have led to this conclusion...)

But last night I had no idea what to make for dinner, I just knew I had to use up some veggies left in the fridge before I headed out for the weekend, along with the half pack of tofu I've had open for about three days now.

After browsing through an old (AMERICAN!!) magazine my mom left here over Christmas break, I came across the Eat Better America website. Oh my goodness, if you click on the "recipes" section there are over a billion things to choose from, organized by labels such as drinks, desserts, snacks, lunch, breakfast, dinner.

I kind of wasted the better part of my night two days ago drooling over every single recipe listed there. So much that I didn't really have enough time to cook that night, so I whipped up something quick (hello, large salad).

Last night I decided to go to the search bar and typed in "tofu" because I really don't know how to cook tofu since I've only ever thrown it in with lentils and chestnuts or something. Desperate for new ideas here, people.

Anyways, the second or third tofu recipe on the site was just too perfect! It's called a Niçoise Tofu Skillet Supper!


I improvised a little bit, cutting the portion almost in fourths. And while I didn't have any green beans, I did have some asparagus chillin' in the freezer (ha, get it?) and I threw in some of my roommate's cherry tomatoes (shh, don't tell!) and duh, Herbes de Provence took the place of the Italian seasoning and garlic salt called for in the recipe. Dang it was good. And like I said, too perfect for someone who's actually living in the greater Nice area!

Best website, EVER.
