Mussels
When I met Hubby, I had never had lobster, mussels and quite a few other things. Turns out we both love Mussels and they’re SO EASY to make. We usually just throw a bunch of stuff in a pot, but here’s an attempt at a recipe:
Steamed Mussels (by ME!)
1 pound of mussels
1 cup white wine
1/2 onion – chopped
3 cloves garlic – minced
Pour everything into a big pot. Be sure to throw out any mussels that are already opened.
Cover pot and put burner on med-high. When mussels are all opened, they are done. Serve with wine sauce.






I am Jen the Beantown Baker. Engineer by day and baking maven by night. Hubby serves as my #1 fan and official taste tester. We got hitched back in 2006. Barefoot. In the sand. With the waves crashing behind us. It was one of the best decisions we’ve ever made. 






This does look easy and the ingredients seem really flavorful! I love simple meals like this that have a lot of flavor and make great leftovers 🙂
I love Indian Food! I totally agree about the smell of garam masala cooking!
sounds like a delicious easy meal! Great to see you and hubby last night!
BB – what is garam masala? What spices are in it (maybe I can recreate with what I already have).
Looks like an easier dinner made a bit more fun with the Indian twist!
Mom-in-law: I buy garam masala at a small Indian market near our place. I did a quick Google and came up with this recipe.
I love garam masala!!! It’s one of my favorite ingredients.
Yum! I love Indian food and this is a great way to make it at home without a whole lot of work. And pretty healthy, too 🙂

These Indian spiced beans look great! Thanks so much for the recipe.
This will be cooked in Prague today with minor modifications 🙂 (Occhio beans..)

Oh fun! I hope you enjoy them.
Would be helpful if the can size of the tomatoes were provided.
