About the only things I can grow well are hot peppers, tomatoes, and basil. My other plants are a bit sad and sickly, but those three are thriving and producing a ton of fresh plant matter for me to pick and eat! That being said, I have to find ways to eat it that are delicious and not just salads or sauces. Enter...summertime caprese salad!
Caprese Pasta Salad
2 cups Whole grain, all natural
bow-tie pasta
1 pound of fresh mozerella, cubed
1 cup fresh chopped basil
1 cup fresh chopped various
tomatoes, I used Sun Gold, Roma, and Cherokee purple
1 T. garlic powder
Black pepper, to taste
Cook your pasta as you like it
and drain it, then mix it in a big bowl with everything else! Super simple but still packs a punch!
I served this to my Marmie and
Daddy. Daddy put olive oil on it and ate
it like that and Marmie put parmesean cheese on it. I ate it as is, “dry”. All three ways are options!
