Ham....ham...everywhere....

Using up Leftover Ham Idea #81

4 smallish ham slices-cubed
1/2 red Onion, sliced
3-4 cloves garlic, crushed
2 medium zucchini- sliced into thin 'coins'
Olive Oil
Black Pepper

Add a glug of olive oil to the pan over med-hi heat
Cook ham without messing with it too much-let the ham get caramelized by leaving it alone.
Add the onions and garlic when the ham is nice and brown-never let garlic burn, it's a sin.
You may need a little bit more oil when you add the zukes. Again, leave them alone to get better acquainted with the others. Let it cook until everything smells so good you can't stand it (and when the zucchini are tender and starting to shrivel-maybe 4-6 minutes...)
When done you can taste and add some black pepper. It doesn't need salt, seriously put the salt down.

I almost wanted to sprinkle shredded parm on this, but I held back.

How much beef can a girl stand?
I think I've eaten a steady 4 days worth with no end in sight. And the sad truth is I no likey the cow. No. No likey. I used to love a thick, bloody hunk o'moo- but those days are ova.
Now it's all about the other. I shun the udder.
Seems like there must have been a sale. I have a fridge full and the madness ends tonight. Well... after tonight. Which is aka tomorrow. Night. Or something.

I am about to go make roasted chici-beans. I am very excited. Did I mention they are going to be roasted? It's all so new.

My plan:
rinse chici beans
gently wrap in paper towel and roll around until dry (the wet beans, not me!)
sprinkle olive oil (I won't write EVOO- I won't I tell ya I won't write it, speak it or think it!)
a bit of kosher salt
perhaps a smattering of secret weapon garlic seasoning?
roast at 350 for half hour.

Will report back in 30+ minutes.
