Tonight I made Pasta Puttanesca from my Cooking Light Annual Recipes 2009
cookbook. This was an excellent recipe, well liked by everyone. Considering the list of ingredients I'm surprised this was such a hit: Anchovies! Vodka! Kalamata olives! Crushed red peppers! If the kids knew what was on their plates there is no way they would have tried it, let alone have multiple servings of it.
I also made Easy Caesar Salad from my Cooking Light Annual Recipes 2008
cookbook. I've made a lot of Caesar Salads and this one was definitely good but I would not consider the recipe easy. The dressing is made on the stove and involves mixing eggs with a warm olive oil mixture, something that can easily end up being greasy scrambled eggs. This is good enough to make again but I think I will stick to my food processor version.

Looks delicious... and I KNOW what Puttanesca is because I am a Food Network junkie !! (Mr. A would be saying "Where's the meat?") NANCY A.
ReplyDeleteI just realized....not only did everyone eat a meal full of 'unusual ingredients'.....no one asked where the meat was! A miracle!
