I’ve been on a pasta kick lately. Probably because I find pasta dishes to be fairly easy to prepare. And they’re always good. Perhaps it’s in my blood as I’m partially Italian and I know how Italians just love their pasta. It is exciting though because there are so many varieties to choose from and […]

Penne Pasta with Roasted Cherry Tomatoes, Garlic & Capers Recipe
There used to be a huge Italian restaurant a few towns away from the town I grew up in. This place was enormous and it served primarily family style Italian dishes. When I say family style, I mean, for something like $13, they served an entire skillet full of the best pasta and sauce I’ve […]
Creamy Melted Leek Ziti Recipe
I seem to have stumbled across a whole bunch of pasta recipes that are prepared in cast iron skillets. I love these types of dishes because they’re so easy to put together. Pasta dishes, soups, casseroles – I just can’t get enough. Today’s recipe is another easy, but really good one. It’s made with ziti […]
Broccoli Mac & Cheese Gratin Recipe
You know what I haven’t had in a long time? A nice big bowl of mac and cheese. That’s what. I’ve been craving mac and cheese for the longest time and just yesterday I made a huge cast iron skillet of some. Boy did that hit the spot. This is one of those dishes that’s […]

Fettuccini with Cheesy Spinach & Artichoke Alfredo Sauce Recipe
There was a huge Italian restaurant near my hometown that offered “family style” dishes that arrived at the table in large skillets (the ones they were prepared in). If I were to order something like what’s contained in this recipe, I’d get the entire pound of pasta, along with full garlic cloves that were cooked […]
Angel Hair Pasta with Roasted Brussels Sprouts & Tomatoes Recipe
Good news! I recently purchased a new cookbook that was put out by America’s Test Kitchen. It’s called The Complete Mediterranean Cookbook and it’s got over 500 recipes that look rather incredible. I was looking for something that would expand my horizons and that would offer some recipes from a different culture. This book looks […]

Do you want a nice pasta dish? Good. All you need to do is pick up a select few ingredients the next time you’re at the supermarket and spend 20 minutes in the kitchen. When you’re finished, you’ll be enjoying a very flavorful and robust fettuccine pasta that’ll fill you right up. That’s for sure. […]
Garlicky Linguine With Lemon Shrimp Scampi Recipe
This is the third and final recipe that we’ve enjoyed during our “shrimp kick.” It seems like we’ve had a lot of shrimp lately. I do love it, but there’s so much more food in the world to enjoy, so we’ll have to move onto some of that. But let me just tell you this […]
Bow Tie Pasta With Creamy Corn, Thyme & Parmesan Sauce Recipe
As I mentioned in my earlier pasta post, I had a total of two similar recipes to share this week. The first was a really nice spaghetti with lemon, black pepper and ricotta and this is a tasty bow tie pasta with a creamy corn, thyme and Parmesan cheese sauce. While I enjoyed them equally, […]
