Earth Hour and the Raw dinner


For Earth Hour we lit our only two candles (I had packed the rest in preparation for the move) and chatted while the kitties slept.

One of our plans was in honor of Earth Hour to prepare a raw meal so that we wouldn't use the stove either. Of course I still needed the food processor so we couldn't actually make the sauce during Earth Hour.

Is that raw pasta in the photo? Yes it is. We made pasta with marinara sauce. The fettucine is made from zucchini, slice by using a vegetable peeler. The marinara is fresh tomatoes, red pepper, jalapeno, sundried tomatoes, basil and garlic all run through the food processor. It was delicious. I'll definitely make this dish again, but I'm thinking about making a cashew alfredo sauce. Yum.

As for Prima...
She's enjoying the packing for the move. If there's a box of paper it soon becomes a bed.

As usual, your meal looks totally awesome!

And of course the kitty picture is super cute! Cats always find the strangest spots, don't they?

Looks and sounds delish. I've never tried raw pasta, but I'm guessing it probably wouldn't be too bad.

I'm just glad the cats don't seem bothered by what I see as chaos all around. Boxes and paper are good. They like them.
