Alligator pie, alligator pie,
If I don't get some I think I'm gonna die.
Give away the green grass, give away the sky,
But don't give away my alligator pie.

Alfredo/Tomato Pasta with Garlic Bread

Sorry, I know it's been a while! I've been pretty busy and haven't gotten the chance to post anything new. Such is life.

For lunch today, I had wanted to make a sandwich. But alas, no sandwichy ingredients! So, I made pasta with both tomato and garlic alfredo sauce mixed in together. I also added some poppy seeds - I really love poppy seeds in pasta, as it gives it a bit of a bite.
It's just a simple pasta dish, nothing fancy. I wanted to see what it would taste like, mixing in both sauces. I decided to add less alfredo and more tomato sauce, so it wouldn't be as fattening as it could be. I'd have to say, it tastes pretty nice.
I made my own garlic butter for the garlic bread - mince two cloves garlic and use a fork to mix with a stick of butter. You can use whatever bread you like. The only bread I had today was artisan rye - it has a sour smell to it, but it's quite delicious.
Anyway, I was totally naughty and ate in my room. I'm lucky I didn't get crumbs everywhere.

  1. hey Alison, noticed you haven't posted in a while, but could you possibly make something delicious and cheap that I could make for dinner? Need some ideas and thought it'd be best if you test ran something =P

    P.S I love chicken.
