No picture today. Oh, I have some new images in my camera – but – I am too lazy to download them.

One of my favorite things to prepare at home is pasta salad. But, I have not figured out how to cook pasta in the nuker. Today, I made a really passable pasta salad using fresh yakisoba noodles.  I nuked some broccoli in a steamer bag for 3 minutes – then I added the yakisoba noodles. And about a tablespoon of water – and nuked the noodles and veggies for another 2 minutes. After I draining the noodles – added ranch dressing and salsa. Then put avocado, tomatoes, and some chicken on top.

My microwave coach sent the following:

Pasta, shells or fettuccine;  break the fettuccine into  about 2 inch sections.  put 2 tablespoons of canola oil with water  in a see through container bring to a boil, then put the pasta in and stir, then nuke for a couple minutes stir again to keep from sticking together, then nuke again for about 3 or so test for tenderness.  I usually set the power at 5 for the second go around.  Works for me might work for U.  Let me know if/when you try it how it does in the Pacific Islands.  Zee
