Pasta… again
Filed Under (Pasta) by maida on 18-09-2008
A few nights ago, I made some capellini (the package was open and I wanted to use it up before opening another) with marinara and meatballs. I often have a hard time gauging an appropriate amount of noodles to throw into a pot– they seem to grow as they cook. I ended up cooking way more noodles than I needed for that one meal and have been eating the same thing for dinner a few nights now.
I made the same thing last night, but added some kalamata and green olives and fresh basil. It definitely perked the dish up a bit and reminded me of my favorite pasta dish, which I haven’t made since April according to my blog. Yikes! We are definitely due to have that one night soon.
The good news is that I have eaten all the noodles and can move on to something new for dinner tonight.
Hello!
Just wanted to say hi and that I’m glad I finally got a chance to catch up on your blog this week. Congrats on the successful freezer purge – your freezer looks so neat and clean now! Mine is, too, but only because I had to throw away all of our food!
Keep on trying with the bread recipes. I am definitely not talented at making bread, but it’s the one thing I wish I was talented at!
I’m glad you have your power back (and glad to have you back commenting)!
