The Lunch Bunch: Week 2

Tuscany Tuesday!



We were so thrilled with ourselves after Tuna Tuesday, we kept going with a pasta bar cleverly named by Craig "Tuscany Tuesday" so we could keep our alliteration.

Once again, it was bring your assigned dish and the menu was as follows:

Pasta: bow tie and penne
Red sauce (which was forgotten, but so were the meatballs, so Jim went and bought sauce to make up for it)
Cream sauce (very good, of course, since Amy made it)
Caprese (slice of tomato, slice of mozzarella, basil leaf, balsamic vinegar drizzle)
Mediterranean salad
Caesar salad (left over bag from the week before)
Variety of olives (including black because I love those guys and can't stand the green ones, though we had two different kinds of those too)
Almonds
Garlic bread
Stuffed Ravioli (Costco's finest)
Pomegranate juice

We didn't end up with a dessert because the tiramisu fell through. Amy and I both thought about making one, and both felt too lazy to do so! It was an awesome lunch none the less, and we all ate until we were sick. The next day, Justin brought in a pasta casserole made from the red, meat sauce he'd left home the day before, so the fun continued!!!

We have such a great group of people at my school, and I feel so blessed to be a member of such an incredible staff!


*An interesting sidebar, Chris cooked her burrito in the microwave for almost ten minutes one day and we had black smoke rolling out of the microwave! It was really something. We all smelled smoky for the rest of the day.
