If you plan on ever visiting Germany, there is one important tid-bit of information you need to know first.
Nothing is open on Sundays in Germany.
That’s right, no 24-hour shopping here.
The only businesses you will find open on a Sunday are restaurants, some bakeries and gas stations.
That’s about it.
We returned to Germany very late on Saturday night.
Back in Bonn to a very empty refrigerator.
Can you see where I’m going with this?
Lunch on Sunday (and consequently, leftover lunch today) was created from the odds and ends found in our freezer and pantry.
Our Freezer and Pantry Pasta included:
- the last 4 florets of frozen broccoli
- a final chunk of frozen spinach
- 2 cloves of garlic
- 1 green chili
- 3/4 cup rehydrated TVP
- 1 can of tomatoes
- 1 jar plain pasta sauce
- Italian seasoning
- dried oregano
- whole wheat pasta
Surprisingly, this makeshift meal tasted fantastic!
Gotta love that!
