Simple pasta recipes are always a great kitchen fall back for those busy days, this roasted pepper and sausage pasta is one of those recipes. Waiting for the sausage to roast in the oven with the peppers is the most difficult part of this recipe.
Pasta is always great for the quick win and in this recipe it is coated in an asparagus puree and then served with blanched asparagus spears. It is then served with some great quality wafer thin parma ham. A perfect, simple summer 30-minute meal!
I love cannelloni, as far as I am concerned baked cannelloni is the king of pasta bakes. It just begs to be experimented with and the number of fillings you can come up with is only limited by your imagination.
Wild garlic is a wonderful ingredient that has a perilously short season and is a great sign that summer is coming. This wild garlic pesto pasta fizzes with the flavour of garlic and basil and is pimped with a little gorgonzola cheese.
This orzo salad recipe is me warming up for the changing seasons. Lighter and brighter flavours, fresher ingredients, a breath of fresh air if you like. This recipe sees a debut appearance from Orzo pasta and only the second appearance from halloumi cheese.
Often butternut squash pasta recipes take the form of a blended sauce, this recipe is a little different. It features cubes of butternut squash cooked in bacon and chili… I know right! Bacon and chili! It also has a little white wine and some rosemary.
This garlic spaghetti recipe is my take on olio e aglio… Except my version definitely leans towards Northern Italian produce rather!
The classic Italian pasta and bean soup, pasta e fagioli is a hearty simple big flavoured soup. Whether it be a minestrone or ribollita the Italians have a fine portfolio of comforting simple soups.
Pasta bake recipes are a huge tick in the box for comfort food heaven. Cheesy goodness all baked in the oven that is easy to scale up and down make it a cooks and eaters delight. My turkey meatball pasta bake recipe is our current go-to favourite.
If there is an ingredient better than pasta at being a midweek meal life saver I have no idea what it is. 10-12 minutes to cook and will work with practically any ingredient you have in your fridge or cupboard. Here we have a salami and leek pasta!
