bizarre meal is bizarre

[merrily]

I looked in the fridge tonight, weighed my options, considered if I could order pizza, and ended up chopping up two beets and half a sweet potato, steaming them, frying an onion and a couple cloves garlic, adding the beets & potato, stirring in a beaten egg, then topping the whole thing off with half a cup of salsa.

Yeah, I don't know what I was trying to make either.

It is a little delicious, but mostly weird.

ETA: Just remembered I have Haagen-Dazs! Yay, my meal isn't going to consist mostly of wine! (It turns out I don't want to eat the beet-sweet potato-onion-garlic-salsa mess. Surprise.)

Well, garlic fixes everything.

...actually, that does sound quite delicious, perhaps with a little cheese or some sour cream.

(I refer to every weird thing I make on a whim and limited supplies that I can't otherwise explain as "vegetable stir-fry" or somesuch, which sounds like it could mean something but really doesn't. The fact that I can't really cook except by stir-frying perhaps helps me in this case.)

I'd have kept the (beets and sweet potato) and (egg and salsa) separate, myself, but I definitely sympathize with the lazy made-up dinner gone awry feeling.
