Linguine with Fresh Tomatoes, Basil and Mozzarella -



Linguine with Fresh Tomatoes, Basil and Mozzarella - Thirty Minute Pasta

I had someone doing some work in my house and decided to treat her to my weekly pasta four Thirty Minute Pasta Group based on the book of the same name by Giuliano Hazan.  I hurried to get the book and then searched through the many pages, I had marked.  I was thinking zucchini since it is in such abundance, presently. So are tomatoes and when I saw the combination of basil, mozzarella, tomato and pasta, I stayed with that recipe, found on page 93 of the book.

I forgot to include the basil  and added it after the picture was taken. It makes a difference in the taste of this dish.  Both of us ate and enjoyed this combination.

To see what the other ladies made check out Kayte, Margaret, Peggy, Glennis.

    This is my kind of dish. Pasta with fresh summer produce! I just came from the farm where I picked tomatoes and basil. I have everything to try this recipe.

    Looks wonderful! I didn't get one made for today, maybe I will cheat a little and make one tomorrow and post it then as we haven't had pasta yet this week. Yours looks delicious.

Thai Chicken San Choy Bau

It says, "thai" so I have to like the Thai Chicken San Choy Bau that we are making this week in our Donna Hay Wednesday group.  It was a bit spicy and the chopped chicken was a nice change of pace. Kayte selected this recipe from On the Shelf on page 124.   I tried it with the greens and it was very good and then I put it on spaghetti and it was spectacular.  My toddler granddaughter even liked it.  Must have been the hot sauce. I used romaine for the greens and I subbed in red pepper and added some Sirracha to spice it up to make up for the real chilis. Do check out the other cooks' dishes at our   Wednesday with Donna Hay site.

Another week, another vegetable for our Power Food group, a bunch of women who strive for healthy eating with the most delicious dishes. Each blog is inspiration . Each week, we choose a recipe based on the power food which comes from the book, Power Foods, 150 delicious recipes with the 38 healthiest ingredients from the editors of Whole Living magazine. Brussels sprouts like broccoli and cabbage are cruciferous. This group offers a unique composition of antioxidants that may provide several health benefits. Brussels sprouts are low in calories and offer protein, vitamins and minerals to help build a healthy human. My first issue with brussels sprouts is that it took me years to spell it correctly. Each time, it came up, in writing, and I admit, that was not too often, I would stare into space asking myself does brussel get an S, at the end or is it sprout that gets the S. For some reason, I could not remember that both end with that S. I am happy to tell you, I overcame thi

Carrot Cake _ Power Food - repost

Another week, another vegetable for our Power Food group, a bunch of women who strive for healthy eating with the most delicious dishes. Each blog is inspiration . Each week, we choose a recipe based on the power food which comes from the book, Power Foods, 150 delicious recipes with the 38 healthiest ingredients from the editors of Whole Living magazine. That week, we concentrated on carrots. I like to check out our vegetable, not only for health benefits, but also for the names of their sisters. Carrots are related to parsnips, fennel, parsley, anise, caraway, cumin and dill. I didn't have a clue about many of these. I, have never seen carrots of other colors or at least, if I had, I didn't know, they were carrots. I am going to a good produce store, looking for purple or red carrots, to start my search. It is fun, shopping when purposely looking for new vegetables. I have definitely expanded my horizons. When, I was thinking about what to make with carrots, I
