Baby Potatoes are so adorable! But then anything 'babyish' are so chweet Dont you think so? :) Trips to food market that way are a bad addiction for me, since I often end up buying veggies cos they luked 'choo cute' ( I hear 'Blech' 'retching' nearby!!). So today, I fell into the same old trap. I saw these v fresh teeny weeny potatoes and had to buy!



My freezer is always well ( ahem 'Over') stocked. I had these frozen shelled edamame beans waiting to be used and I used them along with baby potatoes to make a v nutritious and protein rich meal.
