Canaramma


Fifty two jars of tomatoes with basil today, Cathy and her Mom peeled and chopped while I blanched and boiled.

BLT Pasta Salad

When I say we are having sink sandwhiches for dinner, my honey knows that BLT's are on the menu.  I put so much mayo on them we have to eat them over the sink.  That flavor translates easily into a nice summer salad.
First, boil up a half pound of squiggly pasta, fry some bacon, and start the dressing.  A half cup of mayo and a half cup of sour cream to start, then some salt and pepper along with a couple tablespoons of ketchup or chile sauce.  Mix them up and add a little chopped onion.  Toss in a large tomato chopped up, or a bunch of cherry matos halved.  Three or four strips of bacon make it yummy, just crumble them into the bowl.  Introductions are now in order, Mr. saucy, meet Miss pasta, allow them to mingle while you slice up a couple cups of lettuce.  Lay the lettuce on top and cover with plastic wrap before putting in the fridge, mix it up just before serving.
