Lunch yesterday was tomatoes (natch) topped with broccoli rice...

Then dinner was a 'clean out the cupboards and fridge' meal... First I sauteéd some broccoli stir fry (broccoli, snap peas, carrots) and some chopped zucchini in a bit of water and olive oil. Drained in colander. Added more olive oil to pan and sauteéd sliced mushrooms. Set aside. Cooked pasta, and drained.

To the pan I added the fire roasted tomatoes (no need to drain) and the Roasted Garlic Alfredo sauce. Then in went all the veggies.

Then in went the pasta, the broken up crab, and bacon crumbles. Heated through.

OMGOOOOOD!!

That and a glass of the Santa Barbara Chardonnay Nancy gave me for my birthday. YUMMMMM
