Hi everyone! Sorry it has been awhile since I have posted. I have been trying to adjust to the workload, and I had my mom and sister visit me last weekend. I cannot believe that I have been in classes for only 3 weeks now! It feels like it has been so much longer, especially since so much information is thrown at us in such a short period of time. We have 3 exams next week, so I'm nervous about that. Hopefully I will do well!
In our program, we are fortunate enough to be able to dissect human cadavers for anatomy. It is definitely a little weird at first, especially when seeing their faces, but you get used to it. Last week, we had to peel the skin of the face back in order to reveal the muscles underneath. This week, we went down deeper into the face and neck areas to reveal muscles, such as the sternocleidomastoid, and nerves, such as the long buccal and lingual nerves.
Ok...let's move on to the recipe! My dad actually came up with this recipe. We usually add mushrooms in there as well, but I didn't have any on hand.
You will need:
- Virgin or Extra-Virgin Olive Oil
- Pasta (I used gluten free penne)
- Zucchini (I used baby zucchini that I found at Trader Joe's. Aren't they so cute??)
- Pancetta (I used "Citterio" brand. I've tried Boar's Head brand before and it tasted like salty plastic.)
- Salt
- Pepper
- Garlic Powder
