ECO Lunchbox Three-in-One #88
Angel hair pasta in a sauce of roasted cherry tomatoes, kalamata olives, capers, and olive oil topped with Violife Parmesan and a salad of lettuce, sweet orange peppers, red onion, Bac'n bits (in the little rainbow cup), and a salad dressing made from bottled Italian dressing mixed with Vegenaise.
Though I hadn't bought tomatoes in a while, I did have some wrinkly grape and cherry tomatoes in the fridge. I thought I'd roast them, but I accidentally roasted them too long, and ended up burning nearly all of them to a crisp. But I salvaged some for this pasta. There are versions of this all over the internet, but most use fresh tomatoes. I really liked this--especially the flavor of the capers--and I look forward to trying it with fresh tomatoes.

Oooh, yum, the pasta sounds great! I'm glad you were able to salvage some of the tomatoes!
ReplyDeleteIt was a bit laborious sorting through them, but worth it!
DeleteThat sounds like a great pasta combination, I love olives and capers. Bummer about the tomatoes in the oven, I have been there. At least some were able to be used.
ReplyDeleteCapers are SO GOOD but I rarely know what to do with them. What sort of things do you like to put them in?
