Plates, and Flatware, and Dishes, Oh My!

Tonight was "Pasta Night" take two. My darling aunt disproved of my dining wear (which consisted of tupperware) and was gracious enough to provide for my displaced Southern Table, here in Ohio.

NEW PLATES, YAY!!!


So, I had to use all the pasta I had left over from the other night, and Spring Break is fast approaching. What to do, what to do... COOK. My good friend, Eric, came over to help me cook and eat the rest of my food! He's a great slicer. You need a zucchini sliced, Eric can do it.

Of course, my slow roasted tomatoes made an appearance.


And my favs, zuccs!! 



So, I put the tomatoes in first, two hours at 320 degrees or if you want to cut down the time a bit, put it in at a higher temp. Just keep an eye on them. Once they start shriveling or getting blackened, they are perfect!

Eric cut up my zucchini for me and then we sauteed them with some butter and oil (Paula Deen inspired) and then I had some turkey meat left over and we heated that up in the skillet a bit.

Delicious!

We made the pasta and then threw it all together. Simple and Easy!


The beautiful new bowls and flatware!
Oooh, Ahhhh!


Yum. I added Parmesan on top and if I there had been any tomato sauce I would have added that too, but it was delicious as is.


Eric seemed to like it...


And I loved it.



Thanks Aunt Lisa for my new bowls and plates!! I love them! I can't wait to keep using them more often for when I (hopefully) get the apartment next year. See you guys soon!
Happy Spring and St. Patrick's Day!

Enjoy!
