Thursday night: Baked pasta, braised chard, strawberry shortcake

Last night we did a standard baked pasta (penne with a sauce made from hot italian sausage, onion, garlic, canned tomatoes, crushed red pepper, fresh basil and marjoram, and plenty of wine, topped with parmesan and "basque shepards cheese" from TJs). To accompany we had a salad and some chard (CSA box) braised in chicken stock and butter.

For dessert I made "fluffy biscuits" from my old copy of Joy of Cooking and topped them with macerated strawberries (CSA box) and lightly whipped cream.

Everything was deeeelicious.
