For tonight's meal: pork loin with Kashi pilaf and kidney beans. Pretty tasty, but it could have used a little more than salt and pepper to spice it up. I'll see if I can't make it over to Market Spice (again, perhaps virtually) this weekend and fill in my pantry some. Any spices you're partial to that I should check out? I'm looking for things that dress up vegetables and beans, specifically, but that can also work well with pork and chicken. I feel that lean pork and chicken are often interchangeable; their flavors are different of course but taste-wise both are pretty light and can work well as a background for more interesting flavors.
