What happens when you have to make dinner and you don't have time to go to the grocery store and the cupboards are bare? You take a bunch of stuff from the fridge and throw it in a pot! I looked through the food stocked in the kitchen, I found that I had butter, milk, flour, various leftover vegetables and the usual herbs and spices. First, I decided that I needed to use the broccoli, asparagus, and spinach (I hate when produce goes bad). Then, I saw the butter. I don't usually have butter, but I baked recently and had some left over. Butter, plus flour and milk, add some parmesan, throw in the greens and now I have a veggie cream sauce! I added some black pepper, basil and oregano, what more do I need? I checked out what pasta I had, and surprisingly, I actually had some fettucine. It was a quick dinner and it tasted fantastic. Sometimes, you just need a few minutes, imagination and determination to find what you need.
