Con las olimpiadas en pleno desarrollo, mis noches han sido compartidas entre Halo y deportes. De todo los eventos el que mas me a sorprendido aparte del las medallas de oro de Phelps, es la gimnasia. Lo que me sorprende es que tan chicas se ven las participantes de China, parecen menores de 10 años. No me importa mucho lo de la edad, lo que me preocupa es quien va a trabajar haciendo zapatillas y juguetes con plomo?.

English Translation:

Baked Pasta with Mozzarella: This is a quick and easy dish that is great for informal dinners with friends. It will serve about 4 people. Boil 500g penne pasta in a large pan of water. Meanwhile, fry a chopped onion and 2 chopped garlic cloves in a little olive oil. Add 2 cans of chopped tomatoes; bring to a simmer and cook, stirring often. Cut a large mozzarella ball into thin slices. Preheat the grill to hot and grate a handful of Parmesan cheese. When the pasta is cooked to al dente, drain it well and mix it with the tomato sauce. Put a layer into an ovenproof dish then place a few slices of mozzarella over it and keep repeating this until all the pasta and mozzarella is used. Mix the Parmesan with a handful of breadcrumbs or oats and sprinkle this over the top. Place under the grill for 10 minutes until the cheese has melted.

Baked Courgette with Pine Nuts and Feta: Choose a large, even shaped courgette. Preheat the oven to medium. Slice the courgette in half lengthways and scoop out the seeds with a teaspoon leaving a large hollow along the centre. Break up about one-third of a pack of feta cheese into a small mixing bowl and add a handful of pine nuts and some finely diced red pepper. Season with salt and pepper and mix gently so the feta doesn’t crumble too much. Spoon this mixture into the courgettes, drizzle with a little olive oil and cook in the oven for about 20 minutes, until the courgettes are cooked through. Serve with salad or couscous.
