The Food Files

So the Tuesday July 7 was the first time in 12 days that we ate dinner just as our own little family! I made pasta with pesto and chicken.  Erin made this for us when she stayed here. It's pretty simply and super tasty.  But what made it special for us is I was able to use the basil from our garden to make the pesto and I added parsley from the garden.

The recipe:

Chicken

Penne

Pesto

Can of Italian style tomatoes

Mozzarella

Parsley (because I had it)

Mix it together and eat it!

We've also been making our own pizza's -usually on Friday night. Last time was really good- we used hot sausage, mushroom, red onion, red sauce, mozzarella and taco mix cheese (it needed to be used up!), a ton of garlic, and Kathryn added a TON of red pepper flakes. It was very spicy!!! I think we're figuring out the dough better.  

It's fun having Kathryn help!!!
