Qurator's Tasty Tuesday #106

While out yesterday finishing up some last-minute Christmas shopping, the temperature dropped about ten degrees after lunchtime.

My knees were the first to alert me to the weather change, reminding me that I didn't wear my knee braces for added protection. Silly me to rush out of the house and forget them.

So, for a chilly day, we decided to stop at our favorite Italian restaurant, Olive Garden, to pick up some of their delicious pasta. And we always purchase a bottle of their in-house signature Italian Dressing for other salads during the week. It's sold at the restaurant. I've also purchased it at specialty stores. It's so delicious, with a rather tart, vinegar flavor.

The price for the past dinner is reasonable for our area, about $30 + tax for two people.

Ordering my favorite soup, the potatoe soup, salad, garlic bread, and Chicken Fettuccini Alfredo, we quickly headed back home, opting for take-out rather than a sit down meal.

Once home through, I didn't feel like eating it until today. Still as delicious as ever. They serve you large portions, so I can never eat it all at one sitting.

I always substitute angel hair pasta. The potatoe soup contains ground beef, spinash, and red potatoes. It warms me up, so I always eat it first.

I used to eat at Olive Garden a lot, but I haven't been there for a couple of years probably. I've always loved their Pasta E Fagioli soup, and I have to get it every time I go there. I usually get pretty filled up just on that delicious soup, and like you, I have to eat my soup first! :)

It certainly was, but I have to consume smaller portions now and only indulge maybe once a month.

Have a great day, and thanks for stopping by and your support.

Hi @birdsinparadise. Yep, nothing like it. Soothes the soul. I'm trying out smaller portions now. Need to get me smaller dinner plate sectioned off because I don't like my food to touch each other. Insane right, as though it won't all come together and have a party in my tummy, as the kids cartoons say, lol.

@justclickindiva - I love Olive Garden and their unlimited salads. And the garlic breadsticks are a weakness of mine, so I don't go there often, lol.

How silly of me thinking that garlic bread was a sausage. I think that is perfect meal right there. Would be great to add a glass of wine to it.
