no twirling back

Was it an unintended consequence or a secretly hoped for one? Either way, I'm still trying out new side dishes for a receptive audience. This time it was Angel Hair with Tomatoes and Basil. The recipe suggested you could turn it into a side dish so I did so by cutting it in half. That was just enough for three, although I'm still not great at measuring pasta amounts. The flavor was tomato-y but not too much, which was good for the acid reflux watchers. I could've used more basil but, again, I'm still working on seasoning to taste. It was definitely a make-again, though.
