Sicilian Eggplant & Ricotta Pasta

Sicilian Eggplant & Ricotta Pasta by John Spottiswood

This is yet another wonderful Italian recipe that I've adapted from Marcella Hazan's classic "Essentials of Italian Cooking". This one is good enough that my wife put a little smily face in the upper corner of the recipe and wrote "It's a keeper!". I think you'll feel the same way. We served this for friends with a wonderful citrus…

Pene alla Tuna Puttanesca

Pene alla Tuna Puttanesca by Maria Filice

One of my favorite pasta sauce's is Puttanesca sauce. I love the combination of olives, capers, anchovies and garlic to the tomatoe sauce. I always keep these ingredients in my pantry and a great way to have variety when you don't know what to make. In this sauce, I added tuna and it was fantastic. This is simple, quick and a classic!

Pasta with Cauliflower and Anchovy Sauce by Nancy Miyasaki

This is a wonderful, mild flavored pasta we've adapted from Marcella Hazan. I know it sounds like an odd combination of ingredients, but you should definitely try it. It's unlike any pasta you have likely eaten before, and it is quite tasty. We will definitely make it again. Serve with the roasted broccoli below for a nice…

Low Carb Homemade Pasta

Low Carb Homemade Pasta by Pam Solomon

This recipe was a special request from an anonymous follower. It gave me the perfect opportunity to play with a pasta machine I bought last year, but has been collecting dust in my cupboard. It was a lot of fun. You don't need one for making pasta, but it sure does make it easier. I think I only paid $40 for the one I have. I made…

Creamy Broccoli, Chicken and Pasta

Creamy Broccoli, Chicken and Pasta by Salad Foodie

Here’s a variation of an earlier recipe using zucchini and ham I posted (see Useful Links below the recipe), only this time I tried a different meat and veggie, and tweaked the flavors a bit. It’s still low calorie and low fat and a nice casual family dinner. As a saucy one dish meal it’s a comfort food unto its own yet one far less…

TAGLIONLINI PASTA WITH BARBARESCO WINE AND TRUFFLE

TAGLIONLINI PASTA WITH BARBARESCO WINE AND TRUFFLE by Cecelia Heer

I purchased a package of Tartufissima Barmarasco & Tartufo Pasta (Tagliolini pasta with Barbaresco Wine and Truffle) at a specialty Italian shop one day because it looked like an interesting alternative to the typical pastas that I normally use. And it was. Later, I learned that this is the first pasta with truffle ever produced in…

Spaghetti with Baby Clams & Linguica

Spaghetti with Baby Clams & Linguica by Bob Vincent

This is a tasty pasta dish. It is quick to make and will serve four nicely. I would have used linguine instead of spaghetti but didn't have any on hand. Chorizo or bacon could be substituted for the linguica. I served the pasta with a green salad. For a wine I chose a Rombauer 2012 Carneros Chardonnay. It worked well with the…

Dreamy Linguini by Mary Joseph

I actually dreamt this recipe one night. I have very vivid and often lucid dreams and this isn't the first time something like this came to me in a dream. This is however, by FAR the best recipe that's come to me that way. I woke up, wrote it down and made it the next day and its *delicious*. Hope you enjoy it! P.S. Did you know…

Lemon-butter Linguini with Peppery Shirmp

Lemon-butter Linguini with Peppery Shirmp by John Spottiswood

It always surprises me when black pepper is used in such quantity that it makes a dish truly spicy, since we so often use it as a mild addititve. That's the case with this dish. The black pepper generates a welcome heat which is cut nicely by the lemony pasta. You'll enjoy this one! Adapted from a recipe in Cooking Light.
