I went to a friends house last night and got sooo turned on by the smell coming from the kitchen, no one had to tell me where the kitchen was, the smell was so amusing I literally ran to get there haha..it smelled like peppers, onions, garlic, serranos, wine..MmMm...!! There was something about this kitchen that made me want to stay there forever, it’s the type of kitchen that invites you in, it has an island where you can gather around with friends and watch what’s going on in the pan at the same time(an actual torture for me) but that’s exactly what we did. My friend said he was doing fine and although I was truly dying to grab that pan and get into my cooking mood I poured myself a glass of wine instead and sat down with friends to chat. (jazz music on the background) MY PERFECT SCENARIO! Ok so about the food.. Its surprising how simple it is to make a delicious meal with ingredients we all have at home IN MINUTES- spaghetti, canned tuna, colorful peppers, serranos, onion, tomatoes, garlic, lemon and olive oil. He already had the pasta ready so the next step was to chop everything into small pieces, sauté it for a few minutes (this is when you can see eyes rolling and hear angry stomachs haha) Mix this with the canned tuna, add some lemon, a little olive oil, salt and pepper to taste. Finally, place some pasta in a plate, top this with the tuna mix and enjoy it with some crackers!!! I had dinner twice last night, how could I refuse, it was soo gooood! Enjoy.
Do you think its possible to substitute canned tunna with something like...proscuitto or bacon? It just seems like a better idea for someone fat like me. Would that work?
