I haven’t been able to post recipes much because we have had so much rain. I do not know as much as I want about food photography, but I do know that you need a sunny day to take a bright picture. So today is beautiful, and I am cooking like a maniac. The good thing is my family has several options for dinner tonight.
This is a quick and easy meal. I love to make a big bowl of this pasta on the weekends. This is a perfect side dish to go with a grilled chicken breast. I enjoy just eating a bowl for lunch. You can add chicken to it for protein. You do not have to roast the tomatoes, but it only takes a few minutes and they are delicious.
