I cooked dinner today. I normally only cook for myself because the food my mom cooks isn't exactly healthy, or fits well with my diet, but my sister was here and she was hungry.
So, I made pesto pasta with chicken. It looked and tasted great when I was done, and I really didn't have to do that much work. The pesto sauce was amazing, and tasted really fresh. It was a small jar that I had bought a while ago. I cooked the pasta (whole wheat pasta) and afterwards just spooned the pesto on it, then gave it a nice toss. I then just pan-seared the chicken and cut them into strips, then placed them over the pasta. Grated some parmassian cheese over the thing and, voila!
Not difficult at all, but I could sure fool someone that I had made everything from scratch if they didn't watch me prepare the stuff in the kitchen. >-=P
