Penne for your thoughts


 Flatmate and I got home after a strenuous hour of conteporary choreography only to find we hadn't really thought much about what we were going to nom for dinsy. I looked in the fridge. Saw a tumbleweed. Closed it again.

Eventually I plucked up the courage to reopen it, grab its very few random contents, and this is what we came up with. 

We fried up the last of some shrooms in olive oil with Portuguese flavouring salt, just coz it makes 'em taste oh so nommy...

All we could find in the pantry was two bags of three-quarters-empty pasta, so we just combined the scraps and put a mix 'o penne and fusilli on the boil.

I had some leftover broccoli... she had some leftover asparagus... 
Put 'em together and what 'ave you got? Bippety boppety a bunch of health greens!

We found an avo. Perfect. We diced it up...

 She had some old withering rocket lying around that still had a hint of a definite crunch left on it.

We found two leftover pots of basil pesto.

I had a sprinkling of Parmesan lying around

We combined it all into the most fabulously drool-worthy...

 Mind-blowingly delectable...

Broccoli, asparugus, mushroom, avo, rocket, Pesto and Parmesan penne-fusilli pasta!!


WoWwwwweeeeee I shall be makin' that bowl of green goodness again and again. 

Now to think of a name...

Jessto's Besto Pesto?
The Mean Lean Green Machine?
Don't Spend a Penne?! 
The Green Footprint?
Don't be so fusilli!
Greenies?
