Kid Food – Pasta Salad
Whole grain rotini, zucchini, tomato. The zucchini was lightly sauteed. Everything was tossed together with just a little vinaigrette.
Squash Pasta
Dizzle was going for husband of the year, and he brought home fresh pasta from his recent trip to Seattle. (Pike Place Market…swoon) So good it doesn’t require anything too fancy as a partner. I picked up yellow and zucchini squash along with a gorgeous yellow tomato from our own local market, threw in a […]

Whole wheat pasta, tomatoes, olives, almonds (and the 2yo wanted a pickle in the bowl too :))

Rotini, sun dried tomatoes, parmesan, kalamata olives, almonds
Mushroom “Bolognese”

But…carbonara is […]

I make a few servings of pasta and have those in a container in the fridge for a couple days. The chicken is […]
Leftover Lunch – Lamb Ragout
Second or third verse, almost same as the first. Leftover lamb ragout with penne, dried mint instead of fresh, no fresh tomatoes, extra heat and sriracha.
Lamb Ragout
This is another recipe that I turned into being labor intensive, but it doesn’t have to be. I ground the lamb and was leisurely about the whole thing really, so it was fun. Typically it should be relatively quick and easy. This is served with rotini and topped with grape tomatoes and mint. Delicious! I […]
