Perfect cookbook for Taylor and me? I think yes. We eat pasta a lot. As soon as I opened it, I immediately sat down and went through the entire book, marking every single recipe I wanted to try with a bright green sticky note. Now my cookbook looks like this:
Yesterday evening I got to try my first recipe. Rigatoni with Sausage, Peppers, and Onions. Like my title says, Mmmm!
It took a little longer than I'd anticipated (after you get everything in the pan it still needs another 20 mins to simmer), but it turned out to be absolutely delicious! I loved the fresh peppers and Taylor was thrilled that our pasta dinner included chunks of sausage (oh yea, none of the turkey sausage for us!). The recipe is below (it's tiny on this page, but click it and it will open in a new page), and I definitely recommend it! I did alter the recipe a tiny bit: I used only one onion (two seemed like too many, and it was just fine with one), and used one red and one green pepper to mix up the colors of the dish. I also didn't have the marsala wine, so I used a little less than a cup of water instead (since you do need the liquid in the dish).
So far we're 1 for 1, go cookbook! We had the leftovers for lunch today and it was almost even better than it was yesterday! Stay tuned for more pasts recipe reviews!
