Winging It

Most of the time we need dinner quick. It is hard to find a recipe, make sure you have all the ingredients, and actually make the food all before you (or more importantly, your 2-year-old) need to eat. Tonight we do what we do most nights; we made something up. Dried mushroom tortellini with on-the-fly cream sauce.

The sauce consisted of garlic sauteed in butter, then we poured in a little cream (2TBS or so), added some frozen veggies (spinach and broccoli) that we cleaned out of the freezer, then sliced fresh yellow squash, a couple chopped tomatoes from the garden, and some oregano from the jungle in the back garden. A little salt and pepper at the table finished it off. It was pretty delicious.
