A ‘Frankenstorm’ may be barreling toward my neighborhood, but I’m focused on more important things. Meatless Monday baby. A little wind and rain can’t keep this girl down! And let’s face it if the lights go out I am not looking to eat PB&J and dried goods. Pasta keeps well in the fridge and can be made into a salad!The mushrooms are the only thing that take some time to cook.
