Re: What's for dinner/meal of choice?

I've got a package of frozen mussels and am planning to make a quick pasta dish with tomatoes, garlic and white wine.

Oooh that sounds fancy!

It looks and sounds way fancier than it is, really! Basically, it's these guys:

https://www.aldireviewer.com/specially-selected-mussels-in-garlic-butter-sauce/

They were about $3.50 at Aldi. First, I'm going to cook some angelhair pasta. While that's happening, I'm going to sautee a generous amount of garlic (because I love garlic) in olive oil, then add in a can of fire-roasted tomatoes (also from Aldi) and about 1/3 cup of white wine. At this time, I also add in some extra basil and oregano. Bring to a simmer and sort of mash up the diced tomatoes a bit, let cook about 5 minutes. Then turn the heat to medium high and dump in the frozen mussels, put the lid on and follow package directions, which is to "cook on high for 3-4 minutes, then reduce heat to a simmer for 2-3 minutes". Times are approximate, IME it takes a wee bit longer and you want to be careful not to overcook.

Mussels are fished out of the sauce and put in a bowl, pasta goes right into the remainder of the sauce and mixed in. I add a ton of grated pecorino romano or parmesan and serve, with mussels ladled over the top.
