Dinner Time Motherfuckers!
I really enjoy cooking and baking. Stop laughing. Please. Those of you that know me are well aware of the amount I cook and bake. Which is almost never. But I have a very good excuse. At the end of the day, the amount of energy I tend to have (zero) plus the amount of pain I am in (much) means that standing in the kitchen is not on my list of fun things to do. Before the fibro kicked in I used to cook EVERY day. Like a real housewife. Now TB is the cook 95% of the time, Chicken and I share the remaining 5%. I hate it, because cooking can be so much fun! I would bake goodies more often, as it doesn't require as much standing and stirring but then I would eat it all and become very fat.
This is all a very long-winded way of saying that I cooked dinner tonight and I want to share in the goodness with you. I have been inspired by a few bloggers that have recently posted recipes, namely Swistle, Calliope, and The New Girl. Matthew brought home this recipe from Rachel Ray's cooking magazine and made it for us last week before he flew off to Virginia. It is from the $10 Spot section, where you can make dinner for a family of four for ten dollars or less. My version cost $15 because I made a few changes.
The recipe is Pasta with Roasted Cauliflower and Ham. I'm not going to post the recipe because you can operate the innernets, right? Okay then. You can click on any of the images to get a super-size version. Because I love you.
Changes:
I used three small heads of cauliflower, almost a pound of ham, almost double the sage, and gluten free pasta. The sage I used is organic, but that is only because that is all I found at Henry's. Unless I want to go to multiple stores (not when it is 100 degrees outside I don't) I have to go to a specialty store to get the gluten free pasta.





The finished product:
Super yummy and maybe good for you?
