Italian Salad

Rockport, Texas

A guy walks into a post office one day to see a middle-aged, balding man standing at the counter methodically placing "Love" stamps on bright pink envelopes with hearts all over them.He then takes out a perfume bottle and starts spraying scent all over them.His curiosity gets the better of him and he goes up to the balding man and asks him what he's doing."I'm sending out 1,000 Valentine's Day cards signed, ''Guess who?'""But why?" asks the man."I'm a divorce lawyer."
 
My favorite way to fix spaghetti is a bit different as you might imagine. Since vegetables are important, they are part of the dish.
For one person, since there is only one person in the Castle.

Choose a salad mix from the store.

Measure out a quantity to suit yourself. Sit in bowl the spaghetti will be in, to allow it to reach room temperature or put it in the microwave to warm it. Your choice.

Cook the chosen amount of whole wheat spaghetti to the tenderness you prefer. During cooking add spices as desired. For me it is cayenne powder and cracked black pepper. Sometimes some garlic powder is also added.

While the spaghetti is cooking, prewarm the spaghetti sauce. My choice is one of the Barilla Bros ready made sauces. Your choice, but us lazy bums just use pre made sauces.

After the spaghetti is cooked, drain it, and place over the salad in the bowl. Pour the sauce over the spaghetti. Now it some serious decisions. Do you eat it as is like an “Italian Salad” or do you mix it up. All these choices keep us young don’t they?

Relax and enjoy.

This makes for a good way to try to have tooooo much fun. TheOFM
