Wednesday I made Potato and Sausage Bake. Sound familiar? That's because I found the recipe posted here on this very blog six years ago. (My goodness people posted a lot that first month.) Pretty tasty - similar to the potato packets Aaron likes to make on the barbecue. Cupcake gobbled it up, except for the carrots and onions. Aaron liked it alright, but we both thought it needed something to make it a main dish. Maybe a mushroom sauce?
Today was a good day for soup. Particularly this soup, Zuppa Toscana, like they make at Olive Garden. I was able to chop up extra potatoes and cook up extra sausage yesterday so making the soup was even easier. I didn't use the crockpot as suggested (because I don't have one!) so it was done in about an hour. YUMMY. It's warm and hearty and has lots of great textures. I'd totally make it again.
And for dessert, I made some Maple Baked Pears. Got the recipe in my email today and we just happened to have some pears (which we normally don't). Why not? Not something I'd make on a regular basis (I don't usually make dessert), but could be a quick "fancy" little dessert for company.
