Ahhh! I'm home in Holland and feasting daily. My mom has been spoiling me with some really good food and sugary snacks (I just realized that I forgot to take pictures of her cinnamon rolls. Damn it.) But either way, I've probably gained 20 pounds this week and couldn't care less. Dieting will come in America. :P.
So the picture above is one of the amazing meals I've indulged in. Steamed veggies, Zucchini pasta (my new and most favorite form of pasta), spaghetti, store bought foccatia bread from AH and of course, the red sauce in the middle is amazing red pepper and ricotta cheese. Blended into perfection with lemon zest, I couldn't have asked for a more delightful meal.
This is one of my favorite dishes of all time. It's couscous with sun dried tomatoes, feta cheese, artichoke hearts, and flat leaf parsley. Usually you put chicken in it but why? It's amazing this way and I can't imagine how chicken would make it any better. It seriously is the best dish imaginable. Once again my mom served it with bread and oil, I see a trend in our meals!
Another favorite that I make a lot when I'm home. It's simple and weird, but I grew up on it. You take a tortilla and put it in a pan, until it starts to poof up (flip it occasionally then add a small amount of butter with salt and pepper. It's one of the best fast snacks, you can imagine. Until a few nights ago I had completely forgotten about it's existence.
