The other night, B and I were both home late (me from work, him from the pub...yep, that's how we roll), and we were both absolutely starving - and tired. Dinner needed to be something filling and super-quick.
Step forward that most wondrous of all modern inventions - the fresh filled pasta. I love those bad boys. They take just minutes to cook, yet taste delicious - and they don't need much in the way of sauce or toppings to jazz them up.
00.00 - fill kettle with water and switch on.
00.30 - open fridge. Remove pasta and leftover pesto sauce. Get out bowls and forks.
1.00 - place a large saucepan on the hob and fill with your now boiling water. Tip in the pasta.
1.30 to 4.00 - put on pyjamas, switch on TV, and feed disgruntled cat.
4.00 - drain pasta, divide between bowls. Stir the pesto sauce and drizzle over the pasta.
5.00 - sit down on sofa with a sigh of relief. Probably there's a Friends repeat you can watch on telly.
