I was pretty exhausted by the time I got home this evening, but I'd had the swordfish from PAFC (http://pennavefishcompany.com/) in the fridge for two days and didn't want it to go to waste. Besides, I had a great recipe in mind since the beginning of the weekend. Using the mint I'd bought at the farmers market on Saturday and the basil from my herb garden on the deck, I whisked up a very simple olive oil, garlic, salt and pepper, lemon and herb dressing to coat the swordfish steak and then simply pan cooked it about three minutes on each side until just cooked through. So easy, so healthy, so good. I added a little side of tabbouleh I bought at the local Lebanese market and cut fresh lemons to squeeze onto my plate. I almost stuffed my face with a slice of greasy pizza in the South Side, and I know I'd have felt a lot worse right now. Healthy eating is so fun and so simple with just a few minutes of preparation. And, I am completely rejuvenated. "Mens sana in corpore sano," a sound mind in a sound body.
