Ham, Peas & Pasta Salad

Ham, Peas & Pasta Salad by Salad Foodie

A nice choice for a summer cookout or picnic, this pasta salad can be made up to a day ahead for convenience. My pasta choice for this is ditalini, a small pasta often used in soups (this can be hard to locate but Barilla sells a one pound box.) Or substitute your own small pasta FAV such as elbows or shells.

Penne Alfredo with Italian Sausage and Zucchini

Penne Alfredo with Italian Sausage and Zucchini by Denise Sherin

I had this dish at a local diner and loved it. So I recreated it at home it's an easy tasty dish. It looks like you spent a lot of time making it and it comes together so easily. In this picture I used just zucchini but I have made it with summer squash or a mix of both, whatever I have on hand, and it's great.

Hearty pasta salad to help use up leftover roast chicken or turkey. I've a bumper crop of grape tomatoes which work well in this too. I try to go light on the seasonings, so follks can adjust as desired when served.

Cheese Tortellini with Purple Sage and Browned Butter

Cheese Tortellini with Purple Sage and Browned Butter by K. Garner

My family loves this dish. It's a classic and uses an herb that grows year after year in my yard--purple sage. Any culinary sage will do--the ones with the large velvety leaves. Don't use Russian sage or Pineapple Sage. Stick with the basic sages. We like short pasta with this, and often use Orecchiete or Bow Tie pasta. You've got to…

Summer Pasta by Risa Jane

I adopted this recipe from a magazine which is my favorite, "madame FIGARO japon" at a page 83, 2009/9/20, No.395 issue. The name of original is, "Penne Agli Scampi e Muscoli" and this is a tradditional of Liguria, Italy. But I have arranged it a little bit because I couldn't get scampi so I subustituted shrimp. Also, I used Sicilian…
