Alfredo Pizza Triangles

Looking for something easy for lunch I found a roll of crescent rolls in the refridgerator, topped the unrolled triangles with leftover alfredo sauce, sauteed some onion, garlic and frozen spinach on top of that, then some sauteed mushroom sliced and topped with shredded cheese. Baked until the crusts were golden and the cheese was melty. Easy and even my brother ate some (he cut out the spinach and onion mix and used taco stuff from last night instead).
Rehearsal tonight, so dinner will probably be something on the run. It comes down to what I can grab and go (and hwo much time I want or have to put in to even things like defrosting and reheating).

"In an earlier stage of our development most human groups held to a tribal ethic. Members of the tribe were protected, but people of other tribes could be robbed or killed as one pleased. Gradually the circle of protection expanded, but as recently as 150 years ago we did not include blacks. So African human beings could be captured, shipped to America and sold. In Australia white settlers regarded Aborigines as a pest and hunted them down, much as kangaroos are hunted down today. Just as we have progressed beyond the blatantly racist ethic of the era of slavery and colonialism, so we must now progress beyond the speciesist ethic of the era of factory farming, of the use of animals as mere research tools, of whaling, seal hunting, kangaroo slaughter and the destruction of wilderness. We must take the final step in expanding the circle of ethics." ~Pete Singer
