eh, it was boring tonight. Pan-helper for ground beef, the italian shells box mix. It was just bleh. Would have been tasty for a 5 year old.
I sauted a half of a large sweet onion, chopped, with the meat before adding the boxed ingredients and water/milk. Hubby said to mark it off the list but I think with some simple ingredient additions, it would still be budget-friendly and tasty. I'm open for suggestions.... black and green olives, mushrooms, garlic?
we also had salad with sun-dried-tomato viniagrette dressing and some nice crusty bread.
