"It's better to be a pirate than join the Navy"--Steve Jobs
I remember when Jim Henson and River Phoenix died. I find it a mystery that these two men somehow struck me in their deaths like I had known them personally. I think some people have a certain gleam in their eye or simply have something that cannot be defined. Perhaps, Steve Jobs had that same persona-- That mark we can only hope to rub into the dense woodiness of life. Or it could be that I found out about his passing after watching Crazy Heart, so my empathy is high. Here's to you Jobs-- let's eat some Carbs. All you haters can go to bed.
What you Need:
1 lb. pasta, cooked
3 Tbsp. olive oil
3 cloves garlic, crushed
2 tsp chili, finely chopped
1 C parsley, chopped
1/2 C basil, chopped
1/2 C oregano, chopped
6 1/2 oz ricotta cheese, small cubes
Pasta with Ricotta, Chilli and Herbs
Cook Pasta.
Heat oil in frying pan, add garlic and chili, cook 1 minute over low heat, stirring.
Place cooked pasta in bowl and pour contents of frying pan over pasta.
Add herbs and season with salt and pepper.
Add cubed ricotta.
*It helps to drain ricotta and set on a towel. It keeps the cheese firm.
This meal pretty much wiped out the last of our herb garden.
