Basil Parm Orzo Pasta
I heart this pasta so much (get it?). But seriously, this Orzo with Basil, Parmesan & Sun-Dried Tomatoes is Oh. So. Delicious. It’s creamy and cheesy and pasta-y and keeps your insides cozy, like a good comfort food should. It’s the perfect dinner to make for you and whoever has stolen your heart this Valentine’s Day. Plus, it’s super easy to make – like, you can spend more time just deciding what to wear for your date (even if tha... Read More ›

Fire Roasted Tomato Chicken Pasta

Fire Roasted Tomato Chicken Pasta
This pasta makes me think of a Jackson Five song. A B C! Easy as one, two, three! As simple as do re mi, A B C, one, two, three, baby, you and me girl! Ya know? Because it's only three ingredients? Actually in total it's five. Six if you include salt. Seven if you include pepper. Okay, eight if you include olive oil. But I don't ever include salt and pepper as ingredients. I mean, they ARE ingredients. And vital ones at that. But in the sp... Read More ›

Mushroom Stuffed Ravioli
Hey, Tablespoon peeps! You’re awesome. We’re out here talking about our love for all things miniature, how peanut butter and chocolate is the best combination in the world, or how we’ve invented a game show called “Taco Time” (oh wait, that’s just me), and you talk back. And we like it. One lovely reader, Amanda, put out a call to us for Mushroom Stuffed Ravioli. Well guess what? You got it, dude…tte. Honestly, I’m super-du... Read More ›

Easy Pasta Puttanesca

Easy Pasta Puttanesca
The first time I tried making pasta puttanesca was a tragedy. I’d bought a big ol’ can of puttanesca sauce from the grocery store, warmed it up, put it over my spaghetti and…well, it was underwhelming. Still, I knew there was something fishy about this sauce. Fishy in a good way. Fishy in a way that made me curious to see just how easy it would be to make from scratch. And oh, by gosh, by golly, it is easy indeed. This recipe for homema... Read More ›

Grape Leaves Stuffed with Creamy Mediterranean Pasta

Grape Leaves Stuffed with Creamy Mediterranean Pasta
Sometimes, I get in an appetizer rut. I feel like I make the same thing for every occasion. Over and over again. How do I change it up? I try a new ingredient and play with it. In this case, I decided to play with grape leaves. I have many Greek friends, and whenever they have a party, there’s always a platter of grape leaves on the table. So I thought that I would give this Greek classic my own twist. Instead of the traditional meat fillin... Read More ›

Homemade Sweet Potato Gnocchi
They say the more you put into something, the more you get out of it. I find that’s especially true, for the most part, when it comes to cooking. In fact, I often enjoy my meal more when I know I put all the work into it. That was the case when I first made this oh-so-delicious Homemade Sweet Potato Gnocchi with Smoked Gouda-Sage Sauce. While the lazy side of me was yelling, “Hey! Why aren’t you just buying this stuff from the grocery s... Read More ›

Mexican Chicken Pasta Bake
I don't want to say this too loud, so would you mind leaning in a little? Just a little closer. Little more. WHOA, okay not that close. Alright, here goes: I've been known to be...cheap. Or as I like to call it, an adorable frugalista with magic money saving powers who wears a pink glitter cape and flies around from land to land sprinkling inspirational dust upon those in need. I'm TOTALLY kidding, you guys! The cape has baby blue glitt... Read More ›

Whole Wheat Pasta with Arugula Walnut Pesto
Before cooking this recipe, I had never made wheat pasta. This might not seem out of the ordinary to you, but for someone who has made noodles with everything from olives to peanuts to buckwheat, never making a plain whole wheat pasta is a bit surprising. Despite this fact, I think these were some of the best noodles I have ever made in terms of taste, texture, and look. Paired with a light arugula walnut pesto, this pasta is a delicious trea...

Linguine with Sardines and Spinach

Linguine with Sardines and Spinach
I know what just happened. This: "Ooooh, Linguine with Sardi----WHAT? SICK. NO, dude. No. Just…no." Caaaalm your face, now. Sardines are nothing to grody out about. Sure they come from a tin, and have a reputation equivalent to swamp sludge. But really, this little 3-inch powerhouse fishy not only delivers Omega 3s on a silver platter, but a complexity in flavor that TRANSFORMS whatever is on your dinner plate. Plus, you don't have to bu... Read More ›

Valentine Ravioli

Valentine Ravioli
Going out to dinner on Valentine's Day is one of the biggest ordeals of the year. You need to call months in advance for reservations, every restaurant is packed, and most places do prix fixe menus. You know, an excuse to sell their same old meals at a mark up for the holiday. Not only that, for me it’s sort of awkward knowing that every person in the room is trying to have a romantic evening. Just like New Year’s Eve is known as amateur... Read More ›
