Cat's Italian Zoo Sauce

The recipe of the week - and last couple of weeks, I guess - is coming early, because I'm sitting here eating it right now and I might as well do something useful at the same time. After that, I'm running back outside to tidy the yard some more, because the local news wants to pop by sometime in the next couple of days and interview us about TYDOS. If something more interesting hadn't happened, they would've shown up today on about 2 hours' notice. EGADS, WATSON!!!

So here is my incredibly simple supper. Unlike most of my recipes, this is for one or two people, because the Frightening Four are gone camping with the grandparents and Breakneck's on a night shift.

2 or 3 medium Roma tomatoes
1 bell pepper
2 basil florets (that's the little bunches of leaves at the top of the stem)
oregano to taste
pinch of salt

Cook veggies lightly till the tomatoes start leaking. Not too much, we don't want them to turn into watery mush. Serve over pasta. Done. Yum.


Wow! TV Crew

They'll interview you, then you'll have more customers than you know what to do with, then you'll get rich and famous and forget all us little people.

I guess we can say we knew you when. Seriously, hope it goes well.

She will, she'll pass us in the street without so much as a nod of the head.

Strange you know, I just had that exact same supper (OK it had an onion and some garlic in it too) tonight and I made it up on the spur of the moment too.
