Tonight for dinner, we are having “Fettuccine Paolo” from the “Athlete’s Palate” cookbook. It makes 2 servings:<\/p>\n

4 tsp extra virgin olive oil<\/div>\n
1 red bell pepper, thinly sliced<\/div>\n
1 tsp chopped garlic<\/div>\n
1 1\/3 cups chicken stock<\/div>\n
4 tsp balsamic vinegar<\/div>\n
1\/2 cup sun-dried tomatoes, sliced<\/div>\n
1\/2 cup marinated artichoke hearts with liquid<\/div>\n
1 1\/2 cups sliced grilled chicken<\/div>\n
2 tbsp thinly sliced fresh basil<\/div>\n
salt and pepper to taste<\/div>\n
6 oz fettuccine<\/div>\n
2 tsp grated Parmesan cheese<\/div>\n

<\/p>\n

Rehydrate the sun-dried tomatoes by placing them in a bowl with 1 cup warm water. Soak for 1 hour, or until soft. Gently squeeze to remove excess liquid and set aside.<\/div>\n
\n

<\/div>\n

Heat olive oil in skillet. Add bell peppers and cook 3 minutes, or until soft. Add garlic and cook, stirring, 30 seconds. Add the stock, balsamic vinegar, boil and then simmer until reduced by half. Add the sun-dried tomatoes, artichoke hearts and liquid, grilled chicken and basil. Season with salt and pepper. Keep warm. Cook fettuccine, drain and add to sauce. Mix thoroughly and top with cheese.<\/div>\n

I forgot to get bell peppers at the store so I’m leaving that off. I also didn’t feel like chicken, so I got prosciutto instead. Hopefully my alterations don’t change the recipe too much. I also got whole grain wheat fettuccine pasta.<\/p>\n

<\/a><\/div>\n

And yes, I had 1 beer! It’s carbs! \ud83d\ude42 The result of the pasta: it was okay. It wasn’t the best thing ever. We both decided it probably would have been better with the chicken. Oh well! Live and learn. I still got the carbs I was looking for. I really liked the artichoke hearts too. I also had a side salad of red leaf lettuce and baby spinach leaves. Dessert was ice water with 4 small pieces of dark chocolate. It’s about 8:45pm now. I am heading to bed! Wish me luck! <\/p>\n
