Supper/Dinner Time! What's on the menu ?

More of the garlic eggplant I got from a Chinese takeout. That restaurant really gives large portions, and wasn't oily.

I bought a cabbage for colcannon, but now I don't know. Maybe tofu and noodles with eggy salt 🤔

That Sauce Stash soaked pasta is tricky to get right. I used to try that stuff a long time ago and sometimes it would come out well but other times the pasta would just become gooey and unappetizing. Also soaking pasta for two hours just adds to the difficulty of getting all the the timings right.

Recently I have been making my sauces initially much less liquid, and boiling my pasta in much less water, and then pouring the entire pasta with its cooking water into the sauce for the final product. Usually this is easier to make turn out well, although timing at the end sometimes requires more reducing than I plan.

my honey wanted half a can of pinto beans for a veggie/bean medley so I took the other half and mashed them, added a couple of teaspoons of leftover pizza sauce, spices cumin/chipotle/garlic pwd/onion pwd and then spread it out on a whole wheat pita, added some slightly roasted kernels of corn, a few shreds of cheez, pickled jalapeno, some olives and then put it in the frying pan with the lid on - then added a second pita on top - then flipped it over and left it for a bit - when it was done the outsides were nicely crispy and the inside warm and delicious - sliced in into 4 pieces and it was like a quesadia
