Lazy Pasta

When I feel lazy, I make pasta, plain and simple.  All I do is doctor jarred sauce to include meat and/or veggies and boil pasta.  To be fair, I went a little further tonight by sauteing some zucchini, but it was still easy and done within half an hour.


In retrospect, I should have tossed the pasta before taking the picture.  It looks like goo on noodles, much like my goo on rice photo.  In any case, I just seasoned the chicken with garlic salt and pepper, cooked it in a bit of vegetable oil, and poured the sauce on top to heat it up.  Nothing to it.  The zucchini was much of the same, just like I described last time.  Salt and pepper, cooked in olive oil.  I had realized this before, but this time I really noticed the natural sweetness that zucchini has.  I'm maybe even more amazed that salt can help accentuate sweetness, but that's a continuous process of admiration.

I bought a 10 lb. bag of potatoes at Safeway today, so if I don't make meatloaf and mashed potatoes soon, someone knock some sense into me.
