A baked ziti recipe that is filled with lots of gooey cheese, your favorite spaghetti sauce and ziti pasta. Serve with garlic bread and a Caesar salad.
Fresh grape tomatoes and basil with lots of extra-virgin olive oil and grated Parmesan cheese bring the fresh tastes of Italy to this quick pasta dinner.
I am a self-declared pasta junkie (make that Italian food junkie), but have tendency to forget all about it during the warmer weather months. I often delegate these coveted carbs to fall and winter, when I am craving a hearty lasagna or a rich bolognese. I recently had an Aha! moment when I realized that fresh summer vegetables are just begging to be paired with pastas of all kinds—and not just in the obvious pasta salad. I know I am probably the last person to think of this, but surely better late than never.
The luck o' the Irish will undoubtedly be on your side when you bake this mouthwatering quick bread studded with currants. And if you're really lucky, there will be leftovers.
