From the pantry: Herbed Pesto Seafood Pasta

I haven't been to the grocery store in over a week!  I also haven't posted a darn thing here...too busy, too lazy.

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!*
