Dinner: pasta

Murray, the giant puppy, thinks my tomatoes and peppers are some kind of weird tennis balls. He keeps plucking them off the plants and trying to play with them. (He has yet to figure out that they don't make good balls. Splat! Crunch! Splat!) I think there's a fence in my garden's future. For now, though, I'm going out on tomato and pepper raids and putting the rescuees up on my kitchen window sill, safe out of doggy reach.



Tonight I used them in our dinner. This is a white bean pasta: whole wheat pasta, garlic, tomatoes, roasted red pepper, pesto, cannellini beans, and a little bit of freshly grated parmigiano-reggiano to top it all off. Very simple.



Very nice with a glass of red wine.
