Apologies for my absence, dear friends! I have been preoccupied for the past 2 weeks watching the OLYMPICS! Final Total for CANADA was a whopping 14 Gold, Setting a new WINTER OLYMPICS RECORD!! Amazing! So, I have created a recipe in honor of our athletes, based on what they would eat.

Im diggin the warm weather lately (well, warm for a Canadian January), So I pulled out one of my yummiest summer recipes -although, this year I didnt get a chance to make it.. Stupid Basil thiefs! You can use either meat or cheese ravioli, cheese being the vegetarian option. Its very simple to prepare and is derived from my Nanna’s infamous pesto.
Hello Dear Readers! Never fear! Im back from my reading break, and I have had a lot of time to find some new recipes to put on here. Tonights special is my take on Rachel Ray’s Florentine Mac and Cheese. However I just don’t have the time to make those giant meatballs she SAYS take 30 minutes. Also, I just don’t have the money. So, This way is less expensive with stuff you probably already have in the cupboard or fridge. Take a Look!
I found this recipe while stumbling again, and these wonderful Cannelloni are inexpensive and feed 2 per average adult, 10 to a recipe. They freeze easily and heat up just as good. Try them out if you get an extra hour to make dinner, however these are not a simple school night dinner. They are a rainy day project, but are well worth it!

Im dubbing this the official H.O.T.T meal. For the pasta Im going to keep a tally of how many calories it has today, because I am eating this right at this very moment, and if you tasted it you would not believe that it is so little calories. For this meal, Im combining last nights Fantastic Garlic Bagels with tonights Turkey, Greens and Philly Pasta.

For a summer-fresh dinner all seasons of the year try these simple, economic recipes. The pesto is inexpensive and keeps in the fridge for days and the bruscetta is the epitome of summertime, any time of the year. There are also two alternative recipes using the pesto and bruscetta mixes. They’re relatively simple to make, and are delicious if a hungry friend stops by!

Don’t get me wrong, KD is one of the best boxed food wonders of our time. There are always two boxes in my cupboard at all time. However, there are times where although I would like florescent ’cheese’ dinner, I still want to believe that I may not die at 30 from obesity or high cholesterol. So I came up with a 5 item dinner thats inexpensive, and makes a a lot of dinners for that one time cost.

Ive said it once, and I will say it again. I love pasta. A lot. It is probably one of the most important of dishes for me because it is the first I started with. I created this recipe for a fast, filling, tangy dinner for my family, and they all absolutely love it! I hope you try it tonight, because it may just become one of your favorites.

I love cooking pasta. It is one of my favorite dinners simply for the fact that I feel full longer with this as my main dinner. In my family, the red sauce is the most mythical of all of my Nanna’s (maltese translation: Grandma) recipes. No matter when we go the sauce always tastes the same, and it is always delicious. I’m including my guess-recipe in this blog, as well as a very simple, fresh sauce that takes less time to make than the pasta does to cook.

I saw this recipe on the Oprah Show, where Jamie Oliver helped Oprah make this delicious, fresh summer time pasta.
