Spaghetti alla Carbonara »
Also known as coal miner’s spaghetti (according to wikipedia), pasta alla carbonara is a really simple and easy dish to prepare (why I’m done cooking in under 20 minutes). It’s a hearty, delicous and very satisfying. I like to use Tyler Florence’s simple recipe with some adjustments to suit my family’s taste and my [...]
Spaghetti with Spicy Oriental Sauce (Charlie Chan Chicken Pasta Copycat) »
This is my husband and I’s favorite pasta of the moment. It’s spaghetti with chicken fillet, shiitake mushroom and peanuts in spicy oriental sauce. It’s from our favorite pizza store, Yellowcab Pizza Co. It’s spicy and really tasty. Actually the first time I tasted it I thought it was too salty so we didn’t order [...]
Pasta with Pulled Pork »
So here’s the recipe for the pasta dish that I mentioned in my post yesterday. It’s my favorite recipe using pulled pork. I love it because it’s not just very easy but also oh so goood..hearty, yummy satisfyingly-good!! It’s easy like I said provided you have done the pulled pork already, all you have to [...]
Giada’s Lasagna Rolls »
This is one recipe that I know I’m gonna be making only once; I can tell from just reading it. Oh, I know that it’s gonna be awesome ( it’s loaded with cheese, so why won’t it be..I love cheese!) but I had also foreseen the work, the dishes that I will be washing and [...]
Swedish Meatballs with Yogurt-Cheese Sauce »
What I love about this dish is that you can make the meatballs in bulk and store them in the freezer and just take out some when you need it. The sauce or gravy is super simple and easy to make, no prep needed except for the cheese, but you can just directly grate that [...]
Lemon Spaghetti »
When I first made lemon spaghetti, I used Giada de Laurentiis recipe; while I liked it, my family didn’t–it was too sour/tangy for them. I gave this dish another try using Rachel Ray’s recipe. I must say, I like this one better because of the addition of garlic, red chilli flakes and some cream; the [...]
Baked Macaroni Pesto »
My family and I love pesto, it’s simple, healthy and delicious, so I make it often especially when basil is abundant in the market. But the kids, they love cheesy bechamel sauce too especially my daughter so I thought of combining the two but here, I did not add nuts and cheese to the pesto, it’s very basic- just [...]
Pasta alla Puttanesca (Slut’s Spaghetti) »
According to Nigella’s blog where I got the recipe, this delicious pasta which originated from Napoli in Italy is said to have been prepared by prostitutes who didn’t have time to go to the market for fresh produce and needed to prepare their dish quickly in between their clients..whether that’s true or not, it doesn’t [...]
Fettuccine with Bacon, Mushroom and Peas »
This pasta dish is inspired by the show 4 Ingredients; it came to me couple of nights ago, I was too tired to cook and was ready to order food but then I saw the already thawed bacon, and I remembered how Kim and Rachel can whip up something good for their families in just [...]
Giada’s Pasta Primavera »
This is another favorite pasta primavera recipe of mine; it’s from Giada de Laurentiis. This the most simple pasta primavera recipe I’ve come across with. What could be easier than boiling some bow pasta while roasting the veggies, when both are done, just combine and season to taste. It tastes good too.. very, very good! The natural sugars [...]
