Hello I would like to subscribe to these noodles please

As would I although I'd probably use something other than shirataki... I've never eaten those myself but that sort of thing has a tendency to give me a very bad time when they come out the other end.

I like spiralized zucchini noodles as well, as long as they’re cooked a bit so they’re not super crunchy. (I mean honestly I like regular noodles best of all, but oh well)

I've been meaning to try out zoodles someday. They sound tasty.

So, a week ago I moved to a house in the suburbs. My house is a chaotic mess as I slowly unpack.

Today my kitchen was finally in good enough shape to cook some breakfast. I made a rolled sausage and egg burrito (per chef John) and coffee.

We've had zucchini noodle spirals from Costco that I personally thought were pretty decent, although, we were using them basically just as-is as a veggie side, rather than as a pasta noodle substitute. I imagine though if I had them with pasta sauce and cheese it'd be pretty tasty but haven't tried it yet.

I've never been a fan of zucchini on its own so I'd definitely be using it as a pasta substitute.

Some recent easy meals of note:

Chorizo, scrambled egg, and black beans bowl Salmon tacos Chorizo and fried eggs

My boy Hugo wanted a “volcano cake” for his 4th birthday party.

These sweet potato chunks are dusted with Tony C’s. That means once roasted I get to eat them all myself. (I did not gauge the spice level correctly and now I am the only household member whose body chemistry allows him to enjoy the amount of To y C’s dusted upon these sweet potato chunks.)

What’s Tony C’s?

Here’s what I’m having tonight—zucchini lasagna (alternating layers of oven roasted zucchini slices, ground beef with tomato sauce and Italian herbs, and sautéed spinach with onion, nutmeg, and ricotta, with gruyere melted on top And a strawberry mousse type thing (whipped cream and strawberry purée)

I don't know... when asked: "Does your husband cook?" my wife will reply with: "Yes. Cereal."

Sure, the past year and a bit hasn’t been great, but it did give us TikTok pasta.

Is that tomatoes and garlic surrounding a giant feta monolith? Ready to get roasted?

Yep. Roast it for a half hour or so and then stir in a bunch of cooked pasta. You can also stir in fresh basil, but I’ve added sumac this time.

Tricolor rotini and fake pesto (baby spinach and pecans instead of basil and pine nuts).

felt like making a simple dinner with stuff I had laying around, so... fire-grilled bacon-wrapped filet mignon with cauliflower purée and sonomic-vinegar peas and carrots.
