went to Susan's class this morning - it felt sooo good to work out some of the soreness. my practice was all over the place. i had to laugh - the whole time. it was fun and funny and silly and completely the opposite of yesterday's intensity. wrapped it up with a little paperwork and headed out...
leaving the studio, feeling the brisk autumn air, seeing nothing but blue skies = the perfect sunday.
went to whole foods, spent too much money, got a yummy juice and some "juice". and omg, i made dinner. didn't take a photo because i couldn't stop eating it. so good. this is so not like me, to be able to just throw things together and have them taste amazing, but holy cow. seriously.
1/2 red onion, sliced
1 T EVOO
2 (small) zukes, sliced
1 c. whole wheat pasta (i used penne)
2 T goat cheese, crumbled
fresh basil, to taste
i put the onions in a skillet w the evoo and let that go on med/low-ish heat for a while... during which time i was rumaging around, trying to figure out what the heck i was gonna do. so, maybe about 20 mins? low and slow... gotta get those onions dark & sweet. i roasted the zukes, plain in the oven at 500, but next time i'll season them w garlic salt & pepper. maybe turn it down to 450 (i was impatient at this point). boiled some water, cooked the pasta al dente, reserving some of the water. tossed the pasta, onion, zuke & goat cheese together & i did that chiffonade thing to the basil and mixed it in, too. the cheese melted like a dream. i only added a spoonful of the pasta water, just to keep things loose. (made 2 servings)
and then the girl was happy.
i paired it with a glass of red, which i'm sure breaks some kind of food rule, but whatever. me likey.
bonus: the fridge was clean. haha. ;)
maybe next time i'll throw in some sun-dried tomatoes, maybe a little eggplant... who knows!
i'll have the leftovers tomorrow and try to remember a photo.
love & light!
