pasta, and pasta.

It's been a week of pasta at our house . . .

Monday night's dinner:

There was an article in the February issue of Real Simple that detailed ten different things to do with cheese ravioli -- this was one of them. Spicy sauteed cauliflower and green olives, tossed with whole-wheat cheese ravioli was a mighty fine dinner. (Keep in mind that I typically really don't care for cauliflower, yet I still gobbled this one down!)

I always try to keep a pound of pasta and a can of crushed tomatoes on hand for last-minute weeknight dinners:

I'm feeling kinda crappy tonight, actually, but I knew I needed to eat something (ahem, besides a cupcake.) :) I used up the lone mushrooms lingering in our fridge in my basic 5-minute marinara, and tossed the lot with some whole wheat rigatoni. I wish I could bring myself to eat a salad with this, but I'm just not digging food tonight. Hope I'm not coming down with something! :(

Off to clean up the kitchen, shower, and crawl into bed with a cup of tea and my book. I need an early bedtime tonight!
