After much contemplation and a discussion with the fam we decided upon a pasta dish and a salad.  Our salad was a favorite, Tomato and Fresh Mozzarella Salad.

This couldn't be more simple.  Slice any kind of tomato from the garden and drizzle with red wine vinegar and kosher salt.  Slice fresh mozzarella and top tomatoes or layer around a plate.  Chiffonade basil and sprinkle over tomatoes and mozzarella and finish with a drizzle of olive oil and a little freshly ground pepper.  This dish I could eat as a meal in itself.  Chad and I absolutely love it!

The pasta dish was Broccoli and Bow Ties from The Barefoot Contessa.  It was a big hit, and I must say very easy and quick.  We will be incorporating this dish into our regular mix.


All in all Meatless Monday was a huge success!!!
