Well anyway...
1. Freezer check: bag of Trader Joe's seafood mix and some almonds. Sold! What to make with it?
2. Refrigerator check: half giant bag of washed baby spinach aching to be eaten and a small near-rind of parmesano-reggiano.
3. Pantry check: can of diced tomatoes and artisan egg pasta (kind of the shape of large orichiette).
4. Back patio garden check: rampant amounts of sage and anise hissup.
Ah-ha!
Seafood medley and diced tomato (drained) over artisan egg pasta tossed with spinach-sage-anise-almond pesto topped with shaved parmesano-reggiano!
Voila! This is how dinner is typically invented nightly. I'm just too lazy to either write it down or remember to post it!*

Good work! I missed you! What is Anise Hissup? I haven't ever heard of it and it sounds a little licorice-y for me.
ReplyDeleteIt's about time you posted again! You are always cooking up something great! What a scrumptious looking dish. I only wish I could sample it.
ReplyDeleteAnise Hissup grows like catnip or mint...it's beautiful and the flowers are edible. It's more hearty than basil, and I think basil often has a licorice-y taste so I often use it in tandem with basil and other herbs in my pesto!
