quickies are nice



well..um, those kinds of quickies are nice; however, i'm talking about a quickie meal. bang-bang-bang done. i thought i was busy when i just had one kid. i'm still working on the two kid thing. no time to do much of anything, and when i think i've got a rhythm going, someone shits their pants!

i know, i know TMI. but readers of this blog that have two or more children know what i'm sayin'. aiiiight?

anyway, this is some ww pasta with my signature pesto sauce, chopped spanish olives, roasted red peppers, sun dried tomatoes, and some smoked tofu all living in harmony. in spite of all those savory ingredients, it tasted a little bland, so i added red pepper flakes for flair. it wasn't bad and it utilized stuff that had been sitting around in the pantry. if i make this again, i'll definitely add some roasted garlic or up the amount of pesto i use. i hate it when i'm pesto deficient.

  1. Mmmm pasta is my go to quickie meal. I tend to add olive oil when it's a bit bland. Red pepper flakes is probably a better choice!

  3. This just might be the most ridiculous, self-important comment you've ever gotten, but your blog reminds me a lot of my own :) You see, I also have kiddos, am vegan, like crap TV and my husband is addicted to Virgil's rootbeer. It must be in the vegan MILF water.
