Leftover Crab
The long weekend is over. Our guests have left. We are left with but fond
memories. Fond memories and extra crab meat. Ooh, and a gift cookbook
with crab recipes in it. What
to do, what to do?
Menu
- Crab Pasta
Quick View: Crab Pasta
Ingredients
- .5 pound pasta
- 1 tablespoon butter
- 1 tablespoon flour
- 1 cup milk
- .5 large lemon
- salt & pepper
- .5 cup peas
- 8 ounces crab
- .25 cup herbs
- Ciabatta Bread from the Farmers' Market
- Plain Pasta for the Kids
We opt to prepare a simple pasta dish with a crab sauce. Pasta is always welcome in our house—especially by our son. It also allows us to use up some more of the Farmers' Market fresh bread. Always adverse to waste, we are quite happy using two items on hand—especially when the result is so tasty.
In addition to finishing up some food from the weekend, Chris and our daughter finish their game of Monopoly. Our daughter won. Again. The only other after-effect of the long weekend is that Robin is very, very tired—mostly because the baby is not sleeping well. Hopefully, she will do better tonight with a belly full of pasta.
