Day 1: Pasta without the Bar

We decided to start with something very simple: pasta with marinara sauce and mozzarella cheese.

Here were all of our ingredients:

At some point we'll try making our own sauce, but for now we used sauce from a can.

Making it was pretty easy. All we had to do was boil the water and put the pasta in, simmer the tomato sauce, and slice the mozzarella. Here's Eden cooking!

Wow look at her go!

One of the pieces of pasta went into the sink when we were straining out the water :(

Finished product:

Next, eating time. We were happy with how the food came out. The pasta was reasonably firm, and the sauce meshed well with the fresh mozzarella. Not too bad for a first try.

For next time: put the stove on high instead of medium to boil the pasta, and maybe use a little less water.

Tune in soon for a post about making pizza!
