93- garlic scape pesto
What to do with the scapes before they go bad!?! Tonight i opted for a garlic scape pesto
Some broccolini
Some gluten free orzo
And some orange roughy
And heres our meal
pasta
Pasta bake
So today was inspired by a bon appetit email about weekday pasta bakes
Turns out i had the items needed for my own bake at home.
Chickpea shells
Ricotta hidden within
Chickpeas
Mushrooms
Spots of sauce
Fresh mozzarella
Had a nice salad on the side
Arancini and shrimp meatballs…for super bowl
From the silver palate, i am making arancini…and from my brain, shrimp meatballs.
Raw peeled and deveined shrimp in the vitamix
Maybe a little too vitamixed.
I added some gluten free bread crumbs and lemon juice…dill, salt
Meatball shaped, dipped in bread crumbs. Put it in the freezer …
Brought them back out and up to temp and fried
Finished off in oven
TVP soaked in tomato andWorcestershire and vitamixed
Draining the rice before mixing in butter and parmesan
Omg…i could stop here…buttery/parmesany rish rice cooling and drying.
Rolled up, filled with a piece ofmozzarella and tvp/tomato mix…then dipped in egg and then gluten free flour
Aperol spritz for jim and campari spritz for me
Pasta with chard and the shrimp meatballs
Egg noodle gluten free pasta was a fail.
Shrimp meatballs were perfect and arent so delivate icant sauce them better
Arancini…smaller next time. But thatnrice was wonderful, i really did learn a new technique.
Pulses day three
Coincidence…i had a plan inspired by kevins closet cooking but the only gluten free soy chorizo is the wrong texture…i havent made pasta in a bit so i went that route…
First i gathered sauce ingredients:
Elephant garlic
Gluten free pasta
Some cheese..i love this brand… Feta tastes like feta but the texture is more like jack
Salad parts:

With a canned speed it up:-)
Mushroom/lentil/nut loaf returns
The loaf still lives on and is incarnated into a pasta sauce tonight…
Cans of tomatoes and my favorite sliced portobellos which are on my Amazon subscription by the case…
Mix me up with spices of your choice
Crumble in some loaf
Cook up some gluten free pasta
She’s done
Add a side salad with the cutest little lettuces I buy at the farmers market
Gluten free focaccia from the Palm Springs steer fair with olive oil and balsamic wrap it all up
