Elegant Orzo, Shrimp & Vegetable Salad Stuffed Avocados #SundaySupper
When I learned that this weeks #SundaySupper theme is orzo pasta, I jumped at the opportunity to develop this light and refreshing new dish.
Orzo is probably one of my favorite kinds of pasta. The shape is so tiny and compact that it works well as a filling for a stuffed dish like this Elegant Orzo, Shrimp & Vegetable Salad Stuffed Avocado.
Slow Cooker Meatball Lasagna & Whole Grain Crock Pot Sausage Lasagna
This recipe for Slow Cooker Meatball Lasagna is a family favorite of ours. I’ve made several different versions of this traditional Italian favorite (as you’ll notice in this post), and they’re all easy, tasty, and completely satisfying!
Festive Christmas Pasta with Red & Green Bell Peppers
I’m sharing this recipe for Christmas Pasta with Red & Green Bell Peppers as a recipe re-do. The original post was one I’d published in December of 2012, but it’s now time for some updated pictures. Below is the original photo from the post back in 2012. As you can see, it was in dire need of an update! The recipe stayed the same, but the photos (thankfully), haven’t.
Easy Company’s Coming Alfredo Ravioli Lasagna
As you’ll see in the photos and video, I made this Alfredo Ravioli Lasagna in a square-shaped springform pan. The reason I chose this pan is that I’ve had it in my cabinet, and have never (not once) used it. It’s not like I have a lot of unused pots and pans in my kitchen, but due to neglect and a fair bit of inorganization on my part (i.e., getting pushed to the back of the cabinet), my square springform pan was in need of some serious loving.
Seasonally Delicious Creamy Pumpkin Corn Chowder with Shrimp #PumpkinWeek
My neighbor came over to my house one day in mid-August with a bag of corn on the cob she’d brought me from Wisconsin. What a treat! I thanked her profusely for the unexpected gift and stuck them in my fridge knowing that I’d use them for something soon. Days passed, and I still hadn’t used them…
Easy Weeknight Pepperoni Pizza Macaroni & Cheese
The thing I like most about this recipe (other than all the CHEESE), is how easy it is to make this recipe on a busy weeknight.
By cooking the pasta while the vegetables are sauteing and the cheese sauce thickens, this Pepperoni Pizza Macaroni & Cheese can be on the dinner table in less time than it takes to order from your favorite take-out place.
Sweet Caramelized Seared Scallops with Linguine, Asparagus & Buttered Breadcrumbs
This dish of caramelized seared scallops comes together quickly and with only a small handful of ingredients. And, with only a large high sided saute pan this recipe can easily be made as a one pot wonder.
Crave-Worthy French Onion Stuffed Shells
Imagine if you will, deeply caramelized onions (cooked in a slow cooker) with red wine, butter, beef broth and thyme until they’re sweet and pungent. The onions are stuffed into large, perfectly cooked pasta shells until they’re practically overflowing. The stuffed shells are then layered on top of toasted, garlicky French bread, topped with an abundant mixture of grated Swiss, and Gruyere cheeses, and popped into the oven, so the cheese melts into a blanket of golden, gooey, goodness…Be still my French onion loving heart!
