Tonight's dinner menu:
Pasta and sauce, meat optional
Raw vegetables
Garlic bread, made from homemade whole wheat bread, melted butter, garlic powder, chopped parsley
Ice cream
Tonight's Pasta Recipe:
Part of a package of noodles; part of a package of whole grain spirals
One can pasta sauce, a bit of leftover tomato paste
Chopped mushrooms, yellow peppers, and grape tomatoes
Olive oil for the skillet
1 pound ground beef
Parmesan cheese for sprinkling
Warm a spoonful of olive oil in a large skillet. Add chopped vegetables and tomatoes, and simmer a few minutes. In another pan, brown and drain a pound of ground beef. Add half the can of pasta sauce to each pan, and some tomato paste to the vegetable pan. Simmer while you cook a potful of mixed pasta and noodles because you forgot to buy spaghetti. Let everyone mix and match sauces as they want.
