This is a re-post – although I made it for us just last week.
We’re rather fond of this dish…..
As I am ‘not feeling 100%’ as the Brit’s would say I decided to do an easy recipe.
Shrimp with a Greek flavor: tomatoes, dry … Continue reading.....
This is my answer to the much more decadent Fettuccini Alfredo and a variation on Spaghetti Carbonara.
Leeks are best in this, as they are mild, but you could substitute 2 onions, just sauté them until very tender and starting to brown.
The trick to … Continue reading.....
Do you like Ramen?
Or just noodles of any sort?
I love noodles and pasta of every size, shape or nationality (including Ramen)
This is also a re-post, the original having been done years ago (as usual) but, as we have been eating a lot … Continue reading.....
I like putting spinach with ground beef – burgers, meat loaf and, now, meatballs.
It only takes an extra minute or two and I don’t have to bother with another vegetable.

Although … Continue reading.....
This is one of those long-cooking dishes that I love doing during the winter. It’s not quite a stew and not quite a pasta.
I decided to make it for our dinner party.
We had Butternut Squash Soup to start, Mashed Potatoes, with the Corsican … Continue reading.....
Spaghetti pie was popular back in the ’70’s (I think).
I resurrect it from time to time.
It has, or can have, all the flavors of lasagne without the work.
Plus I can make it with whole wheat spaghetti to pretend that what I’m eating … Continue reading.....
I love pasta… All shapes and sizes.
I like to pair pasta with the sauce or other ingredients in the dish.
Mon mari doesn’t care about all that.
He no longer likes / wants to eat ‘short’ pastas like penne or rigatoni or farfalle.
But … Continue reading.....
