Recipe

Last night Stu wanted spaghetti (which is absolutely boring me to death right now but it's so cheap!) so instead of intruding on his sauce (I don't like meaty sauce much) I decided to concoct my own dinner.

I came up with a delicious, warm, spicy mix that's perfect for a cool Fall evening.

I present to you:

Kate's Spicy Delicious Fall "Stew" (I don't really know what to call it yet) -- serves 1

1 cup penne pasta (or whatever you fancy -- bowties, macaroni, etc.)
1/2 can Great Northern Beans (or any kind of white bean like navy, etc.)
1/3 can Diced Tomatoes with Green Chilies
1/3 c. tomato sauce (or alfredo sauce...I was tempted to use the alfredo)
1 tablespoon Parmesan cheese (you could also just use spices in place of the cheese, like garlic powder, onion salt, etc.  Or you could even use feta cheese)

Cook pasta, drain, and add to (microwavable) bowl.

Mix in beans and tomatoes/chilies.

Pour tomato sauce over and sprinkle with Parmesan.

Pop in microwave for one minute.


This was so tasty -- all it needed was some crusty European bread.  I had the one bowl and quickly made another batch for lunch today.

Mmmm!!!
