Sorry all, I've been a bit MIA. I promise you I have been making food, just not documenting appropriately. Consider the following my apology letter.
Because I love pesto so much, I made yet another concoction.
Ingredients:
- 1 small yellow squash
- 1 oz chopped green onions (chives)
- 1 small bunch of broccoli (yes, broccoli for the nonbelievers)
- Slightly less than 1/4th C olive oil
- About 2/3 C water
- 2 T light margarine
- 2 T light cream
- Dash of skim milk
- Dash of garlic powder
- 1/4th-1/3rd C grated parmesan cheese
- Packet of pesto mix
- 1/4th a box of penne pasta
Directions:
- Cook pasta as directed, then set aside mixing with an extra T or so of olive oil
- In a separate small pot, simmer margarine and olive oil
- Add in water, pesto, and bring to a boil while stirring constantly
- Once it reaches a boil, toss in squash and green onion, then reduce heat to a simmer for about 4 minutes, stirring occasionally
- Add in milk, cream, and broccoli and stir a bit
- Add dash of garlic then taste to see if you want to add more of any of these ingredients
- Check to see that vegetables are done
- Pour sauce over desired amount of pasta and CONSUME
