Today was a free day. Breakfast was simply a bowl of cereal. I didn't even bother to take a picture...corn Chex and Cherrios. We skipped lunch for some much needed exercise. We went to Pipstem State Park and ran the disc golf course. Honestly, I did not make it for the full 18 holes. The top 9 was about all I could manage. My darling husband/best friend took on the second 9 and came back to tell me that it was very physically challenging. Glad I opted out. We plan to go play the top part of the course at least once a week. Maybe after a few months of doing that I will be able to attempt the bottom 9.
When it came to fix dinner there was nothing new and exciting that I wanted to try, so I went to an oldie but a goodie. Some times you just want to throw together something quick.
I don't normally buy bread becasue I love it a bit too much. but when I picked up the ciabatta rolls for the burgers I could not resist the loaf of herbed focaccia bread that was sitting right beside the rolls. And knowing I DID NOT want that bread to go stale or mold or anything stupid like that I decided to have it for dinner. And nothing goes with herbed focaccia like spaghetti. I wanted something a bit spicy so I replaced one can of petite dices tomatoes with a can of the salsa style roasted tomatoes. Other than that, the recipe is the same as a previous post. I like to roast my own peppers and such but some days you just have to take advantage of what is already available. It's nice to have a go to meal that comes together quickly yet is very satisfying.
and the bread lived up to my expectations. Yummmm
After a rice dish pasta is best and my wife does it like no other.
