Garden pests got you down? Are they eating EVERY SINGLE PUMPKIN PLANT YOU EVER PUT IN THE GROUND (yeah, I’m not bitter at all…)? Why not whip up a batch of Linguini con Insetto? It’s simple - cook pasta according to package instructions, toss in melted butter with capers and black pepper. Stir in a handful of insects freshly harvested from your garden and top with shredded parmesan.
Seriously, don’t do this. Those are shrinky dinks!
you could’ve fooled me! I needed a laugh this morning!
For added crunch! yum yum!
Instead of shrinky dinks bugs, have you tried using mixed bugs? A friend shared some of it at her dinner party (google edible mixed bugs to see a picture of the product, along with info on where to buy them).
It’ll add a delightful crunch to your pasta dish.
And yes, you’ll get even. They eat your pumpkin plants? You get to eat them. Fair’s fair.
So glad this tickled your funny bone!
Lots of pests are showing up today for sure…hee hee
Some extra protein! Perfect use of pesky pests.
If you can’t beat them, eat them! Cronch cronch cronch…
A great meal suggestion when you can’t go to the grocery store. Thanks!
Ha! We have lots of pasta over here…
Gah, I hope it doesn’t come to that, but if it does, I’m happy to have a nice recipe.
add lots of cheese…everything is better with cheese…
…or bacon. Make it a carbonara! Lol!
This is funny, though- love this post! You did have me going for a second!
I hope I’ll see those shrink bugs in another project, I need that to wipe scary pasta memories from my brains!
The protein of the future! The far, far future with any luck.
Lots of protein! Way to turn a negative into a positive!
Do I see one of the cream filled ones? As Timon would say slimy yet satisfying
