This post is part of the blogger challenge titled BBBC. Today's topic is:
15. Describe your dinner (you can share a pic, too).
Today (Sunday), it's breakfast for dinner. Not an uncommon thing around this house though it is not a favorite of everyone. But, since I'm making it and cleaning up, I get to choose. Isn't that the way it works?
Yesterday's dinner was a little different. I just made spaghetti. My way. So the pasta was whole wheat and there were green beans, cauliflower and carrots in the red sauce. I've gotten complaints about both the whole wheat pasta and the evil vegetables from my son. This time I made a spaghetti pie. I mixed an egg with some of the pasta and layered the bottom and sides of a baking dish with it. Baked it for a bit to make the "crust". I then mixed the rest of the pasta with the sauce and layered it onto the "crust" with ricotta and parmesan cheese kind of like lasagna. Baked it in the oven topping it with mozzarella for the last five minutes. Now all of the evil veggies are buried and the whole wheat pasta is somewhat hidden. No comments from my son but he ate quite a bit of it and has some in labeled containers in the fridge for his lunch this week.
And just to add a bit of moto content, here is PBC #60! Apparently, I can submit another one tomorrow this is the next to the last one (Really!),

Looks like we were both cookin'!
ReplyDeleteoh... and 'breakfast for dinner'? That happens around here too, particularly if it's been a tough day and we need some comfort.
DeleteCooking, for me, is almost like a hobby. So, if I'm home, I'll usually prepare dinner.
