Corn and pasta is not a combination I have had before and summer is a great time to try it. Corn is still in full swing and the ears I bought were sweet. I bought egg wide noodles but Dorie’s photo looks like fettuccini. I served my dish with a dollop of sour cream, my…

Pasta with Sardines, Fennel and Pine Nuts
My husband knocked this out on a Thursday night. He said this recipe was doable for a week night meal. We opted not to put the oil in from the sardine can but used olive oil instead. We enjoyed this one even though it was a bit fishy. Anytime raisins end up in a dish…
Meatballs and Spaghetti
I manage to cook on time but posting on my blog is still a problem for me. For Cook the Book Fridays we made Meatballs and Spaghetti or in my case Gemelli. We really loved this marinara sauce and meatballs that cooked on the stove for an hour and a half. Not a week night…
Ginger Fried Rice
Ginger fried rice, this week’s assignment for Every Day Dorie. I actually made this one on time but forgot to do the write up. We haven’t made Asian food in a long time so this was a welcome change. I used soy sauce instead of ponzu sauce and I skipped the gochujang and I wished…
Pasta with Cabbage, Winter Squash and Walnuts
My first recipe with Cook the Book Fridays! I was looking forward to another interesting recipe from Dorie, pasta is a dinner we turn to often in our house. I chose acorn squash as my winter selection, linguine as my pasta and substituted pecans for walnuts. This was a fairly easy recipe, Dorie’s instructions are…
Lasagna Rolls
From chef Giada De Laurentiis, a fan favorite recipe according to Food Network, these lasagna rolls. I needed a dish to bring to work for a potluck and these individually rolled lasagna sounded perfect. This recipe is just as much work as a traditional lasagna but I thought well worth the effort. The bottom layer…
Roasted Vegetable Lasagna
This is our final week with Ina Garten at I Heart Cooking Clubs. I can’t believe six months is up already and time for a new chef. Lasagna is a labor of love no matter how you make it. This roasted vegetable lasagna was multi-step and an hour cooking time in the oven so definitely…
Rigatoni with Sausage and Fennel
Januray’s Food Network Magazine included this Rigatoni with Sausage and Fennel recipe from Ina Garten. I love pasta and thought we would enjoy this, boy did we ever. Another restaurant worthy recipe from Ina. This pasta is not a light recipe. High fat items include Italian sausage, heavy cream, half and half and Parmesan cheese….
Crusty Baked Pasta and Cauliflower
Thanks to the cooks at I Heart Cooking Clubs I have been introduced to some new recipes. Now I have to find the time to make them all. I was inspired to make this pasta dish from Kim at Stirring the Pot. I made a few changes to the recipe to ingredients that I had…
Bow-Tie Pasta with Corn, Thyme, and Parmesan
I love pasta in any way, shape or form. This bow-tie pasta caught my eye from Curtis Stone’s What’s For Dinner cookbook. Besides the obvious this recipe includes olive oil, shallots, garlic, dry white wine, thyme, corn, heavy cream and Parmesan cheese. I enjoyed this pasta but my husband gave it a meh. I think…
