Someone Woke the Bear

It's obvious the Bruins don't want to end their season tonight as they scored twice early in the first period tonight. For some reason, it almost seems as if I'm rooting for Carolina, but I seriously don't have any vested interest in this game other than it's a good one.

More importantly I truly impressed myself tonight with the last of my investment in lobster by making an exceptional Lobster Quesedilla and pairing it with the best Mexican pasta salad I've ever made.

Recipes to follow, and Bruins and Canes about to start the third. I may never leave the couch.

Mexican Pasta:

Two cups tri-color pasta cooked

1/2 cup Latino Blend frozen vegetables

1/4 cup sliced scallion or leeks

3 tablespoons Olive Oil

1/3 cup salsa

1/3 cup Roasted shelled pumpkin seeds (yes, pumpkin seeds)

1/2 package Sazon seasoning mix.

water as necessary

In a frying pan saute the veggies in the olive oil until slightly soft. Add the pumpkin seeds to toast for just a few minutes. Add the seasoning mix and Salsa. Saute until blended and warm. Add the cooked pasta and coat. Add a few tablespoons of water to thin out just a little. Keep stirring to coat pasta and keep from burning.

Um... that's it.

It's gorgeous and pretty healthy.

Wow, we've got Ducks & Redwings tonight too? I better stop drinking or I'll be asleep!
