August 30, 2014 Pasta with pesto, shrimp, and fresh mozzarella with white Sicilian Grillo wine

We went to Old Town this evening to hear the music in the band stand and met Steve and Eileen White in front of their stores at 300 Romero and then Cynthia and Ricardo in front of the Aceves Basket Shop on their way to celebrate their first anniversary with a dinner at Antiquities.

We went home without any plans for dinner.  Suzette suggested that we use some of the fresh pesto she had made on the PPI Gemelli pasta and add some fresh mozzarella cheese.  I suggested that we add a few shrimp.  I boiled and peeled ten medium shrimp and cubed them into pieces.  Suzette cubed a squash and 3 Tbsps. of red onion and sautéed them in some butter and olive oil and white wine in a large skillet. When the ingredients had softened and cooked she added 2 cups of pasta and tossed the pasta with some grated Pecorino Romano and then in a large serving bowl with the fresh cubed mozzarella. 

I poured glasses of Sicilian Grillo white wine and we had a delicious and simple meal.

Later, I ate some chocolate ice cream for dessert.


Bon Appétit
