Otherwise known as Kitchen Sink Pasta! If you’re into it. I call it that because there was this one Friday afternoon when I desperately needed to clean out the fridge and eat everything in it before I screamed. And shopped. Screamed and shopped. And as I perused the contents I found everything I needed to […]

Creamy Penne with Tomatoes, Kale and Sausage
Oh. Yeah. This. Right. Yep. Yeppers. I know I shouldn’t do this to you. But on the other hand, it would be such a disservice on my part if you didn’t know about this dish. I almost don’t even want you to scroll down to the ingredient photo because you’re going to pass out at […]
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 […]

Penne with Trapanese Pesto
No that does not say TRAPEZE. But the weird thing is, the little penne pastas kind of look like little trapezes, don’t they? And I didn’t even plan that. THE STARS ALIGN ON THIS GLORIOUS DAWN, Y’ALL.

Penne Pasta in a Roasted Beet Sauce
Guess how incredibly lame we are! And by “we” I’m referring to myself and my husband, a pair of old, pathetic party animals who just can’t hang with these kids today. And by “hang” I mean stay up past 9:30pm. This is embarrassing. Get ready. So, okay. Today is our 7th wedding anniversary. (Thank […]
Creamy Penne with Blue Cheese, Arugula and Toasted Walnuts
This recipe makes me sing a little Dionne Warwick tune that I’m absolutely positive you treasure in your heart as much as I do. The classic, “I’ll Never Fall In Love Again.” Except the lyrics go like this in my head: “What do you get when you fall in love? A bucket of penne with […]
