We had roasted veggies & pasta a la Midlo tonight

[HarukaTheTrophyWife]

I call it "a la Midlo," because the veggies were roasted with Barefoot Chardonnay.

1. "ala Midlo" would have omitted the veggies and pasta, and just been

the chardonnay.

[HarukaTheTrophyWife]

2. True

She does like pasta, though.

And, tonight's dinner was a way of sneaking vegan food into LostinVA. At least until she put cheese on it.

[flvegan]

6. Ha! Even with the cheese

it's still vegetarian! Heh heh, Lost.

8. I switched the veggie broth with chicken broth when she wasn't looking -- Ha!

[HarukaTheTrophyWife]

10. Pfft...so were laying on the couch watching the tv the whole time I was making it

There's a reason I'm the trophy wife.

[flvegan]

12. I thought that sort of task was cougar territory? Huh.

I need a trophy wife, or something.

[Midlodemocrat]

11. HAHAHAHA.

:eyes:

Freak.

[HarukaTheTrophyWife]

13. I did have a couple glasses while cutting up the veggies

And I stuck the knife in the dishwasher.

:hide:

3. So....

Time to get the stomach pump?

:-)

5. It's good, and organic

The only non-organic ingredient was the wine. Organic wine is too expensive to cook with.

4. I'll be right over.

I had a protein bar a little while ago. I'm having a beer now. This is not a proper meal.

[HarukaTheTrophyWife]

7. This was definitely a proper meal

I roasted zucchini, cherry tomatoes, carrots, shallots, and garlic all together with some barefoot and olive oil, salt & pepper. Then, I toss it in with some pasta and vegetable broth and let it cook together for a couple minutes, then serve.

It's a pretty common meal in our house.

9. It sounds really good.

14. So, what's Chardonnay with shoes like?

I know nothing about Chardonnay at all. So, just to participate, I made a halfway funny. :evilgrin:

[HarukaTheTrophyWife]

15. It's yummo

Personally, I prefer red wines, but the Barefoot Chardonnay is pretty good and cheap. It's $5 a bottle, so I really can't complain about the price. Sometimes magnums go on sale for $7 a bottle.

I don't really drink much wine, but when I do, I usually grab barefoot. Unless my mom's buying, she insists I drink organic now, because she's on an organic diet (breast cancer). I can't afford $20 bottles like she can.
