Genius! A dinner that is simple, fast, healthy and delicious!
I grabbed some of the fresh herbs from my patio garden. Basil, Oregano, Parsley. And mixed them with some buttered spaghetti. Topped it with a little shaved pecorino romano for that bit of cheese and salt to counter the butter and the clean taste of the herbs.... and I got something fabulous.
I know it is a bit lazy to just put herbs and cheese on top of pasta, but the simple recipe allows the fresh and great quality ingredients to shine. Now if I could just find some of those "natural" wines I keep reading about to go with this meal....
This may be my go-to summer meal for lunch and dinner. I do this all the time where I keep craving the same homemade items over and over again. One season it was Caesar salad and grilled cheese for lunch. Another was a salad of greens with chickpeas, articoke hearts, parmesean and sunflower seeds. When it gets hot outside, I crave fruit and simple fresh comfort foods.
Next post may be an ode to the wonders of fruit. This year it is going to be raspberry heavy; possibly some pineapple too.
