Mari posted a blog recently about a meal she prepared for herself and a few friends. She said she prepared gnocchi pasta with Italian red sauce, Cesar salad, and garlic bread. She cut up the gnocchi pasta, boiled it, and drained it. She then heated the red sauce and poured it in a bowl with the pasta. She put the garlic bread in the pasta until golden brown and tossed the salad. This makes me hungry just writing this.
As I do agree with Mari that the meal would definitely be enjoyable and very appetizing I think that after reading Michael Pollan's book I would probably have to rethink a few of the sets of preparing a meal. I understand that most people do not want to or cannot eat strictly healthy meals, as defined in Pollan's book, all of the time. However, I think I would have looked more carefully in the ingredients of all of the things I bought. Maybe that is what Mari did and just did not add that fact in her post. I definitely have made similar meals with I believe to be very healthy but I think that next time I will be a little more cautious about what I perceive as truly healthy.
