The Runner's Dinner
Lucy plans to run at 8:30 tonight, pending a temperature check, so she requested dinner for 6:30. We had whole wheat pasta with fresh baby spinach lightly sauteed in 2 teaspoons of Pampered Chef's garlic-infused canola oil; then topped with fresh chopped tomatoes and minced garlic (both of these are uncooked) and freshly grated parmesan. Remember freshly cracked pepper and some kosher or sea salt. Speaking of salt, Mario pours a ton of salt into his nearly boiling water when he cooks pasta. He says the water should taste like the sea. I agree that it seems to bump up the flavor of the pasta if you add a good amount of table salt to the boiling water. Stay cool!
