I would love to know what is one of your favorite go-to meals. I have asked most of my friends but would love to hear again. A go-to meal is a meal that you almost always have the ingredients on hand and you know you can make in a jiffy. It could be pancakes, hamburgers, or whatever else. One of my all time favorites is elbow macaroni tossed with tomatoes. There are a lot of wonderfully yummy possibilities depending on what you have available. If I have hamburger I will brown it, drain, & toss with cut up stewed tomatoes with the juice. To jazz it up, I like to add fresh basil or italian parsley or both! Add some garlic salt, a slab of butter, drizzle of EVOO and top it off with grated parm cheese. Today I didn't have hamburger so I used just regular diced tomatoes (with the juice). Since I didn't have any fresh herbs I just raided my spice cabinet and dumped in parsley flakes, basil, oregano, and garlic salt. I was dreaming of added grilled chicken. I also added salt, pepper, tons of grated parm. So, there you have it. My all time most favorite go-to meal. It is friendly to all the seasons! Please share with me what your meal is.
Oh, oh, oh...one last note about my favorite, you can easily make a huge batch of this stuff and warm the leftovers in the oven. Sometimes when I do that I add some mozz cheese and a little more EVOO or butter if the pasta seems dry. I have even mixed in some sauce too.

OH NOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!! Something is wrong with my google reader. I haven't seen your last 2 or 3 posts. They didn't even show up. :( I don't know what the problem is or how to fix it. I was linking up to your page in my blog entry today and when I clicked to see if the link worked I noticed I hadn't read your last few entries.
I don't really have a go-to meal. Usually eggs & toast is my go-to meal. I need help in this area.
This one just showed up in my google reader also. Hmmm. What's the deal and how many other blogs am I missing?
(I have a go-to meal for myself but most of my kids wouldn't like it... I mix flour and an egg together and roll out noodles. Then I cook them in chicken broth. YUMMY!!!)
