Mark Bittman’s Pasta with Corn Zucchini & Tomatoes... subbed Eggplant

Quarantine supper tonite...   Live from NYC...
Today was sunny...  bright...  high of just below 80°F accompanied by low humidity giving the feel of late summer into autumn...  delightful...  energizing...  uplifting...  joyful day...  

Pasta with corn zucchini and tomatoes by Mark Bittman...  the recipe said it was a framework for a dish...  subbed out the corn and zucchini for eggplant and chicken thigh meat from yesterday’s roasted chicken  (it was supposed to be grilled chicken but the weather gods gave us a downpour just at cooking time)  pívot...  into the oven it went...  still delicious last night and again as a protein for tonite’s pasta...  also added a huge dose of Parmesan to the hot pasta then once again on the plate...  simple... delicious and a terrific fridge clean out dish...  something I always appreciate... following supper the hubs enjoyed homemade mango sorbet with his evening coffee...

Laura has become a life threatening hurricane...  winds topping 150 mph...  15’ storm surge and at least a foot of rain...  catastrophic damage and flooding expected...  we are holding the residents of the gulf coast in our hearts tonight...  please stay safe and evacuate if you are in the path of this monster storm...
How was your day?    What’s on your plate?  Thoughts?
