A marriage of traditional chicken Florentine with pasta and basil pesto. Sliced sauteed chicken breasts with spinach, garlic, white wine, cream, pesto, and pasta.
This dish derives its name from the color contrast of the two types of pasta. Because it mixes the earthiness of whole wheat with the familiarity of regular pasta, it's a delicious introduction to whole-grain pastas. Truffle oil adds a pleasant, earthy undertone; you can substitute extravirgin olive oil. As with all alfredo dishes, serve immediately.
Fresh spinach, chicken, and a combination of cheeses make this pasta dish comforting enough for the last days of winter yet fresh enough for the first days of spring. Serve family style or portion out in individual ramekins. Either way, this penne pasta casserole is definitely worth sharing.
Stromboli is like a pizza that is rolled up jelly-roll style and then baked to perfection. This recipe is so quick and easy to make. You and your family are going to love it.
Remember the BBQ Chicken Braid? The possibilities of filling bread with magical ingredients has been on my mind ever since. The next step beyond the braid was inevitable since homemade pizza is such a staple around here: a changed-up calzone.
