Day 57-58

Day 57

Pasta Salad
We made this up while at the grocery store one afternoon.
1 lb bowtie pasta
1 1/2 tub roasted red pepper pesto
1 tub mozarella balls
1 can artichoke hearts cut in 4ths.
1 bag julienned sun dried tomatoes
1 can black olives, sliced
1 package dry hard salami (we like the package already sliced and with peppercorns in it)
Cook the pasta acording to the package.

julienne the salami
cut up the artichokes
slice up the olives (we buy the already sliced)

Mix all ingredients together.
Chill.

Serve with some crusty bread or crackers!

Yummy!

Day 58 we had Shrimp Tacos

I had already cooked shrimp in the freezer. I thawed the out, put them in a ziploc bag, added olive oil and Cayenne pepper. When I was ready to cook them, I put them in a skillet with olive oil and just browned them. We added them to flour tortillas that we had pan browned.

The sour cream sauce:
1/4 cup chopped fresh cilantro
3 tablespoons mayonnaise
3 tablespoons fat sour cream
1 teaspoon grated lime rind
1 1/2 teaspoons fresh lime juice
1/4 teaspoon salt

I added chopped jalapenos.
It was delish!
# 1 garlic clove, minced

  1. I freaking LOVE this pasta salad! 300 days is a long time to go without it, but I can't wait to eat what is in store.

    First time I have ever had shrimp tacos and it was good.

    If nothing else, EVERYONE reading this should try a new meal for at least 2 months. You are guaranteed to have at least one thing you have probably never had before. I know we are in store for some great new favorites in the next 300 days. :)
