I was sweating standing still today after work as I was waiting for the shuttle to pick me up and drive me back to the parking garage {note: was waiting for the shuttle because I didn't want to walk and get sweaty. fail.}, and that is when I decided I absolutely can't take this hot hot weather much longer. Ugh.
So, I came home and made a light, fresh dinner in an attempt to "embrace" the August heat.
Now let me share because I think it is delicious...
"EVOO" Pasta
Cook desired amount of pasta - I used whole wheat.
Rinse cooked noodles in cold water to cool.
Spray olive oil over noodles {or pour if you don't have a handy mister like I do - thanks KB}.
Chop fresh tomato and avocado and add to pasta.
Season with Dried Basil, Oregano, Lemon Pepper {generous amount - I love this stuff}, and sea salt to taste.
Mangia, mangia!
This pasta dish is so easy, and tastes so light and fresh even in this summer weather.
sure does beat my dinner last night of mashed potatoes, grapes, and carrots!
ReplyDeletebahaha! KARI! thats hilarious...but the pasta sounds good. I think I'll try it! I won't need to make 2 trips to the grocery or cook meat I can't identify (is it ham...or pork...wait, its all pork! what!) haha
ReplyDeleteYou know my obsession with pasta and all things noodle -- I do believe I'll have to give this one a try!
