There are times when being frugal means trying something new. Learning to can, or switching to a metal razor, or learning to make my own laundry detergent.
But much of the frugal life is appreciating what we already have. In this case, we already had a giant pile o' pasta leftover from our No Hands dinner. (Nobody's hands or mouths had touched this pasta -- we made a lot more food than we managed to serve to people). And we had a favorite recipe: peanut butter pasta.
It's one of the fastest meals we can put together, and it's delicious. Here it is, again.
PEANUT BUTTER PASTA:
In a large pot, heat up
When the mixture has heated up enough that the peanut butter has melted, get out your pot of leftover pasta . . .
And then stir it into the sauce.

PEANUT BUTTER PASTA:
In a large pot, heat up
- a bit of vegetable oil,
- a dollop of peanut butter,
- a splash of soy sauce
- garlic and/or ginger are optional.
Toss in some leftover vegetables, if you want.
Continue heating and stirring gently, and then serve. Total preparation time is about 10 minutes.
