Writin' Rations™

For those times when the wordcount is depressingly low and the deadline is depressingly near, a quick lunch:
  • 1 pane di casa roll from Baker's Delight (or similar 6" or so sub roll)
  • Two or three tablespoons of spaghetti sauce from that jar in the back of the fridge (warning: check for beasties!)
  • Two or three tablespoons of ricotta cheese

Mix the cheese and the sauce in a bowl. Cut the roll in half lengthwise. Spread the mixture on the roll halves. If the roll is fresh, just broil it until the topping is browned or bubbling or whichever indicator of doneness you prefer. If the roll is a day or two old, bake the assembly in the oven (helps freshen the roll back up again).

Eat quickly while catching up on podcasts. Trying to type while eating this dish is not recommended, as it's slightly drippy and crumb-prone. Return to writing with a full stomach and the virtuous feeling that comes of eating nice food that is relatively easy on the planet. (I'm currently listening to a radio program that is earnestly telling me just how horrible for the planet it is for me to eat meat.)
