Tonight we were kitchen warriors, once again braving a new recipe. Baked Penne!! Who doesn't love a good pasta? And incase you were wondering, no we are not on a low carb diet. Ours is a strictly carb-friendly home.
Commence cooking!
|
Bell Pepper, Onion, Ground Beef... Chop & Cook! |
Thank goodness my man likes chopping... It's one of my least favorite things. Well, mostly the onions, but still.
|
Add Marinara, Cooking Cream and Cheese |
OK up to this point it was looking fairly healthy... but who can resist cream and cheese??? Not I!
|
Add to Caserole dish, throw on YET more cheese and bake! |
What's better than cheese? Oozy-melted cheese of course!!!
|
Plated! |
OK maybe not the fanciest looking dinner we've ever had, but it sure was tasty. Here is the recipe
Baked Penne for fellow carb-friendly households that may be interested :-)
SO... What's the "Surprise" in "Baked Penne Surprise" you ask? Well... funny story. After we finished dinner, Joey and I started watching How I Met Your Mother and the entire episode was about finding the world's best burger. One of us (I'm going to put the blame on Joey here because he's not around to blog otherwise) mentioned how GOOD a burger sounded. Then we talked about "hypothetically" going to grab a burger at In-N-Out. Well, about 0.17 seconds later we were both in the car driving to get burgers. AFTER we had already eaten dinner. I think I've reached a new low.

Dinner Round 2 - SURPRISE! |
It's OK though because we shared one order of fries. Right? RIGHT?!? Yikes.
I'll be back at the gym tomorrow morning to work off at least seven of those french fries.
