Yum-O!

Well, not really Yum-O!  So I tried the new recipe last night.  The recipe is Rachel Ray's Rollover Turkey Bolognese with Whole Wheat Spaghetti.

My youngest, pickiest eater helped.  She handled grating the carrots and chopping the onions.  With tears streaming down her face, she said she was going to make her kids chop the onions when she was older.  I agreed that it was a great idea.  Hahahaha!

She helped all along the way, chopping and stirring.

We cooked whole wheat pasta and made a simple salad to go along with it. 

Voila!

The verdict?  My sweet, picky eater thought her first try at meat was ok.  Hubby thought it was great and picky eater's "boyfriend" was polite and said it was good.  Although his second helping was of salad, not the main dish.

I thought it was kind of bland.  It was full of onions and garlic, so you would have expected more flavor, but not so.  This is a perfect recipe for little ones, but I think I would add some green peppers to it, along with some spices to flavor it up a bit, for us adults.

You'll notice this is a "rollover" dinner.  Tonight I will take the left overs and make Turky Vegetable Chili.  Will let you know the results tomorrow.  It should be more flavorful, as I get to add chili powder to it! (Reminder to self, pick up some Rolaids on the way home.)
