Abandoned Edibles
whole wheat pasta, baby arugula, marinara sauce, onion
*BONUS* leftover AEs: smoked mozzarella cheese, cheddar cheese, green pepper (additional ingredients: garlic, crimini mushrooms, olive oil, blue cheese crumbles, red onion, salad dressing, spices, etc.)
What I did: I made pasta, bitches! And a salad. Pretty easy. But how could I NOT, given the ingredients I found in the cull bin? All I did was sauté the mushrooms, onions, garlic; added the marinara, made the pasta, and threw together a salad of baby arugula, red onion, blue cheese, and green pepper. Piece of cake!
The Verdict
Easy, simple, delicious. Not a lot of creativity points here, but I had two hottie dinner guests who cleaned their plates, so it must have tasted decent, eh?
Taste: 7
Creativity: 4
Appearance: 6
Improvements for next time: I must confess I wasn't a huge fan of the whole wheat pasta, but it WAS in the cull bin, so I had to try it out. I also wish I had had a zucchini to cube up and throw in the marinara.
