Put a pen on it

So there are often times when I think to myself, "this really worked with Veer, maybe I should share it with the other Moms!" And there are other times when I look to other moms to get their reactions to something absolutely crazy that I put to test with my baby boy.
There are also times when I want to share some cooking ideas, some playtime techniques or basic fashion with other new Moms without really being in their face.

Moms need a place where they can do their victory dance and also where they can vent their frustrations. Mommy groups are great, but sometimes it becomes a Pi***g contest (in a man's world). I just want to pen down my days of happiness and crazies and let people decide if they want to use my 2 cents or not!

So here I am with my little blog, writing away my days and embossing them as memories a.k.a - "Putting a pen on it"

Take what you please :)

Green Pasta :)

We always try so hard to pack in those greens and I have discovered one way to make it very appealing. Pairing spinach and kale with bow-tie pasta (or any pasta of your choice)

As a general rule for feeding pasta, I always overcook it to make it super soft, easy to chew and saute the cooked pasta in a splash of butter,Parmesan and black pepper.

As for the pasta sauce, I decided to break away from the traditional marinara and try my luck with some "greens". It worked for now, I'm sure he will catch on and call me out someday! If he doesn't, his dad will. Lets enjoy this while it lasts, but hey - it was yummy so lets just go with the flow.

Green Pasta

Ingredients :

Cooked pasta
Half onion (finely chopped)
1 Tomato (finely chopped/tomato paste)
Spinach-Kale puree
1 clove garlic
Oregano, Basil, Salt to taste
Half a cube of cream cheese triangles ( the secret ingredient that makes everything so YUM )

Method :

Saute onions and garlic till fragrant. Add in the tomatoes and spinach puree. Bring to boil and season with herbs and salt. Turn of the gas and add the cream cheese cube and blend well.

Add cooked pasta and serve :)

Easy - peasy - super yummy!
