We didn't have plans tonight for dinner, so off to the fridge I went with no plan and not knowing what was thawed to cook. This is what I came out of the fridge with.
1 lb. Boulevard Wheat Bratwurst
1 lb. Sweet Italian Sausage linked
1 green bell pepper
1 large yellow onion
sliced mozzarella cheese
4 bolillo rolls
bagged Caesar salad
I jar spicy sausage Prego sauce
cooked bratwurst and sausage in pan, removed and sliced.
sautéed peppers and onions with ellbees garlic spread and removed from pan.
put meat back in pan and added sauce.
cut rolls open and layered meat, peppers and onions, and cheese and place in broiler
Sausage and pepper sandwich with a Caesar salad as the side. So good I am glad I have leftovers for tomorrow. [Reply]

Tho' I've never heard using using any garlic cloves and always freshly grated, Parmigiano-Reggiano—the best of the best parms.
I'll have to try the egg. I am afraid I will just have clumps of egg in my sauce. But it could be worse.
I use dry rather than fresh because it is almost foolproof. A bad alfredo is one with the cheese stuck to the bottom of the pan and not incorporated into the cream. Dry I have never seen that happen.
Garlic I like to use because I think it adds so much more to the sauce. [Reply]

Take the egg and whisk it in a bowl. Before you drain the pasta, take a half cup of pasta water and slowly whisk into the egg. You've just tempered the egg. Now you can slowly add it to your pasta and sauce without scrambling the egg and leaving bits of egg in your sauce. [Reply]
Lunch Today at a place called barbecue nation. Various kabobs; fish, chicken, prawns, potato, paneer, pineapple, mushrooms and probably more I don't remember.
Was wanting something alfredo-like after the clusterfuck of the weekend. So this is a meatless carbonara (oil, wine, garlic, cheese, and egg yolks) with some leftover NY strip.

what motivates you to call them prawns? :-) [Reply]
