One of my tried and true pasta recipes – Farfalle with Fresh Tomatoes and Basil. A summer dish with fresh picked, quality, ripe tomatoes and fresh picked basil. You’re going to love it!
This delicious macaroni and cheese makes a perfect meal when combined with a few spears of steamed asparagus tossed with a touch of butter or bacon drippings. It’s also a great side for just about any entrèe.
We all have our ridiculously easy dishes that we can fix on a lazy night in the kitchen. This capellini with lemon, garlic and an egg is one of mine. Not only is it ridiculously easy, it’s delightfully delicious.
A roasted bell pepper and onion thick sauce recipe that can be used as a dip for a tortellini appetizer or as a sauce for a tasty pasta dish.
This recipe makes a huge bowl of pasta! It’s a pasta salad that can be served hot or cold making it a great dish for parties, potlucks, and picnics.
This recipe is a typical chicken and vegetable pasta dish with a twist – the seasoning is Thai curry, fish sauce and fresh basil.
