Busy weekend

Monday, September 12th, 2005

Jeez, the weekend went by so fast… Saturday morning, I had a SHRUG meeting and picnic, Saturday afternoon I made pesto pasta for a Saturday afternoon/evening pool party, and Sunday, I read and read for my two classes - Writing in Electronic Environments and PHP 101.

Here’s the recipe for pesto pasta:

Pesto Pasta

1 recipe pesto (about 1 cup)
1 lb. gemelli pasta
6 oz. feta cheese, crumbled
2 roma tomatoes, chopped (reserve 1/4 cup for garnish)
2 tbsp. pine nuts
olive oil

Make the pesto and add enough olive oil to make it easily spreadable. Cook the pasta to al dente and rinse well with cold water. Mix pesto and pasta; add feta and tomatoes and mix gently. Top with reserved tomatoes and pine nuts.
