Boil 8-12 oz pasta (rotini)
Meanwhile, brown 1/2 lb ground turkey.
When pasta and turkey are both cooked, combine them in a pot with a large jar of 3-cheese pasta sauce. Heat until warmed; serve and enjoy.
This isn’t so much a recipe as a reminder to myself that these 3 items can be combined.

4 fillets white fish - Oil a baking pan, add the fish, and sprinkle liberally with seafood seasoning (such as 365). Cover with foil, and bake for about 20 mins at 350.
Meanwhile, add a little olive oil to a skillet, saute several cloves of garlic, and add 4 cups chopped veggies of any sort (I like broccoli, cauliflower, grated carrot, sweet peppers, asparagus if in season) plus a handful of fresh cilantro or other greens. Stir for a few minutes, then add 1/2 cup broth and (optional) jalapenos and cook a few minutes more, until veggies are crisp-tender.
Serve the veggie mixture over the fish, and squirt liberally with a lemon wedge.
Recipe from The Jungle Effect, from Mexico (where it’s made with freshly caught trout, cooked on a campfire - you can pan-fry the fish instead of baking it, then make the veggies in the same pan.)

Make 1 cup (dry) quinoa according to pkg directions, using chicken or other flavored broth in place of water.
Meanwhile, brown sliced chicken sausagel in another pan (or skip this step if using pre-cooked meatballs; just add to pan with a little olive oil). Add 5 oz spinach, fresh or frozen, and 1 chopped tomato or a handful of cherry tomatoes. Cook until everything is warmed through.
Stir quinoa into veggie/chicken mixture. Serves about 4.
(Recipe from ToT. Made with TJ’s chicken meatballs on 2/22/2012)

1. Preheat oven, doesn’t matter what temperature. Meanwhile, toast2 slices whole-grain bread.
2. Top toasts with 1/4 avocado, sliced; a few slices of red onion;and muenster cheese. You have constructed two open-face sandwiches.
3. Put sandwiches in the oven just long enough to melt the cheese. (I would use a toaster oven if I had one).
I first discovered this type of sandwich at the ABC Cafe in Ithaca, where it was made with a bagel instead of bread, and topped just before serving with a handful of alfalfa sprouts.
