You have to admit, it's fun to say the names of Italian food. Try it! Tortellini! Fettuccine! Maranara! See, I was right. Or maybe I'm just easily amused. Hmmmmm.
Last Sunday I found two $1 coupons in the paper for Buitoni Pasta. The grocery store had it on sale this week so with my coupons, the price wasn't so bad. I made two trips to the grocery store today because I forgot the Alfredo sauce and Parmesan cheese on the first trip. After I returned home the second time, I realized I didn't have the fresh broccoli. I did have a bag of frozen broccoli so I used that instead. Fresh would have been better, but I didn't have it in me to go to the grocery store three times in one day. One day I'll get my act together and get everything on one list. Today wasn't that day. Maybe tomorrow ... or the day after.
Broccoli
Cheese Tortellini
1 jar of Ragu Alfredo sauce
1 cup fresh broccoli florets
1 cup fresh broccoli florets
2 packages (9 ounces each) refrigerated
chicken and cheese tortellini
1 ½
cups shredded Parmesan cheese
1/4 teaspoon black
pepper
It looked better on the plate, but I ate it before I realized I had not taken a picture.
