Yes MORE PASTA. But I don’t think you’ll be mad about it. Because it’s puttanesca. Which is a painfully unfortunate name. But my version is stripped way down! Which is an even more poor choice of words. Let me start over. There are toooooons of putt putt (<–no) recipes out there, but I’d like for […]

Your new go-to weeknight pasta. Right here. This is it. This is she. This be her. What? And it has heavy cream in it so you can go ahead and do a triple axel twirl throw jump toe pick. Feel better? This pasta dish is EXACTLY what you want in a . . . well, […]
Pork Meatballs and Penne with a Creamy Mustard Butter Sauce
Best strand of words in the history of ever. I got this wild hair the other day when I came up with the idea for this recipe. Me, “I want to make a creamy mustard butter sauce!” Aaron, “A what?” Me, “A creamy mustard butter sauce.” Aaron, “Mustard with cream and butter?” Me, “Yes! Over […]
Linguine with Chicken, Tomatoes and Spinach
IT’S BEEN SINCE AUGUST SINCE I LAST POSTED PASTA. (sorry to scream at you.) What kind of bull honk a wonk is that. AUGUST. I should be ashamed of myself. I bet the insanity I’m about to show you will somehow make up for lost time. For lasta time? Because THIS MEAL. Ugh. It was […]
Linguine with Roasted Red Peppers, Italian Sausage and Onions
Also known as, the exact ingredients in this meal. FUNNY STORY about how this recipe came to be. Not funny HA HA, just, “Oh, that’s funny.” Never mind. One of our favorite Italian restaurants in town, IF NOT our tip-top favorite, has this Giovonni pizza on their menu. It’s ridiculous. Sausage, red bell pepper, and […]
Roasted Red Pepper Pesto Pasta
Or – RRPPP for weirdos. This one goes out to all my vegetarian peeps! (super grossed out that I said peeps just now.) (and that I gave a shout out at all.) THIS IS WHAT HAPPENED. Our little neighborhood has a mini farmer’s market. You may recall a certain voice I use every time we […]
Creamy Spaghetti with Smoked Salmon and Fried Capers
It’s like brunch and dinner had a hybrid love child. Don’t tell anyone. The way I ended up on this recipe was sort of like a mental joy ride. (you’re like, isn’t that your brain ALL THE TIME?) No comment. I wanted salmon! But like, regular salmon. Salmon that you sear in a pan and […]
Greek Orzo Pasta Salad
Isn’t May 18th the unofficial gateway to pasta salad season in my head? Thought so. I think I just came with your very favorite new pasta salad. I really do. I seriously do. Because it’s not BORING. Not to say other pasta salads are boring. That was rude. But you know how you get super […]
Turmeric Chicken Pasta
Because you need another chicken pasta recipe. NO, YOU DO. I could eat chicken pasta for days. There are kabatrillions of variations out there, all of which are fine and great and whatever. But I’m telling you, this Turmeric Chicken Pasta is going to punch every single one of them in the face. But first, […]
The Easiest Fresh Pasta
And you don’t even need a machine! (besides your miiiiiiiiieeeeend) The other morning I was flipping through an old magazine in one of those teensy, stale claustrophobic waiting rooms, purple half-gown draped over my shoulders before proceeding to get my chee chees flattened to crepes, (<–life of a 40-year old) when I noticed a torn […]
