Supertasty summertime dinner...
Jul. 21st, 2008 10:33 pmWhen we got home from the lake last night, there was a grocery bag with a GIANT zucchini hanging on our back door. I already had one in the fridge that I'd been intending to broil last week and didn't get around to it. So now I have two big green squashes to deal with.
This morning as I was planning the grocery list, TRex requested egg pie (crustless quiche) with zucchini and mushrooms so that will take care of some of that. I was already planning to do a variant on a recipe I've done a couple of times that involves pasta with lemon juice, squash, and basil. Then I got to the grocery store today and discovered that they also had very nice-looking eggplants on sale, and basil plants 2 for $4 (aka, one for about what I would have paid for the appropriate quantities of basil leaves).
And so, I present... Summertime Pasta. Stupid easy, extra-tasty, and even TRex gobbled it up. (Though, it must be said - my kid does NOT have average preschooler taste in food. She also specifically requested bulgur wheat for lunch.)
