We hope to document many of our exciting food adventures, but sometimes, we just need something simple yet tasty. We spent five long days in Dallas for a conference, which forced us to eat out. We discovered some excellent places, but we hit a saturation point with eating out.
We got back from Dallas fairly late (9pm) on a Tuesday night and despite feeling saturated, also didn’t feel like cooking, so we tried out Varga Bar, which had been on our radar for a while. The next day, we wound up staying a bit late at work, so we just had some leftover pizza that found its way back with us from Dallas.
But finally on Thursday, we cooked at home. We stopped at Sue’s Produce Market which is one of our favorite local spots and loaded up on veggies and pasta to make at home. Veggies over pasta is definitely our major go-to when we’re stuck for ideas. Cooking such a simple dinner was such a welcome relief after running around for a week. Usually, we don’t follow any kind of recipe but just grab what looks good and eyeball how much of what to use.
We made conchiglioni with broccoli rabe, sundried tomatoes, mushrooms, carrots, leeks, red peppers and garlic, garlic, garlic.
