klwalton, I made pretty food today, but I didn't have my camera handy, so you just get a description.
I put some pasta on to boil. Meanwhile, I chopped some jarred red peppers, some green olives, and a couple of fresh tomatoes. I tossed them in garlic powder, olive oil, and salt, and sauteed them with some bay scallops in butter. When the pasta was done, I drained it, took the scallop mixture out of its butter broth with a slotted spoon, and mixed the pasta and scallops together. Then I added a splash of cream and a bit of black pepper to the scallop broth and reduced it a bit. Poured that over the pasta, then topped the bowls of pasta with two slices each of goat cheese, and little dabs of salmon roe on top of the cheese (as you know, I work at a furniture-themed Swedish restaurant, so caviar is cheap for me). So beautiful, and once it was all mixed together, don't laugh, but it was almost like a seafood stroganoff. So very yummy, and such a swellegant lunch, if I do say so myself.
