Yummy, fast dinner last night - mlucas1 - 08-30-2007
I don't know if anyone here is a fan of Rachael Ray. I like her and have tried a few of her recipes. So, I decided to give another recipe a try last night. I loved it, but the kids did not. My DH is on the road right now, so he didn't try it. Anyway, here goes:
Lemon Basil Bowties
Bowtie pasta - cooked al dente
1/4 c EVOO
1/2 c fresh basil, chopped
3/4 c toasted pine nuts
1 1/2 c ricotta cheese
grated lemon peel of 2 lemons
salt and pepper to taste
Cook pasta according to directions. Drain and toss with EVOO. Add pine nuts, basil and lemon zest. Stir in Ricotta cheese and serve.
Yummy!

Thanks Meg, that sounds good! Copied and saved!
I love this type of recipe, so easy to increase or decrease the amount as needed. I'll bet it looks pretty too.

Jean, how am I going to teach you to cook if you think flavors have sounds? Do you walk through your pantry saying things like, "Basil, speak up! Hey Basil?"

Yes dear, we all have the nicest conversations - you should hear it when the pantry and I get going...
.....bless your heart

Dunno - I've heard that some of those conversations get a little spicy.

well yes, sometimes the language is peppered with a tad of saltiness whilst we ketchup with each other...

...THAT must take a lot of thyme.
