Pasta with Roasted Tomatoes

July 19, 2012 By Jennifer @ PB and P Design 19 Comments

Hello Everyone!

How are you on this lovely Thursday?  Today was another rough one with Jet lag and all, but I managed through.  Since my trip to Europe I have been craving carbs, horribly.  I never used to crave carbs like I am right now, and I felt the need to feed my carbs, so I made this wonderful light pasta dish.

I was at Trader Joe’s the other day and they now carry fresh pasta, and I just had to try it.  I  love it,!  But the only thing is, the pasta cooks quicker then the instructions say.  So if you buy it, keep an eye on the pasta, mine took about 4 minutes to cook.


I decided to roast my tomatoes instead of using a sauce.  Have you ever roasted tomatoes?  If you haven’t you must!  The flavor is unbelievable!  All I did was cut 2 cups of cherry tomatoes in half, add some garlic, salt, pepper and olive oil and placed in a 450 degree oven for 10 minutes.  Dinner took about 15 minutes to make total.  Not to shabby for a weeknight meal.

I served my pasta with Alexia Garlic Bread and a simple side salad.  It was perfect and filling.  I tried to control myself with the bread, so I stuck to two slices, which is one serving.  I love Alexia’s Garlic Bread, it tastes so fresh.  When I was in Germany there was a cute little Italian Restaurant behind the gas station in a park and I had a pasta dish there it was amazing!  I couldn’t get it out of my head so I had to re-create it at home.  I don’t think I did to bad!!

My poor Husband has been living on potato chips and hot dogs for the past week, and I am sure he is craving a meat and potatoes kind of meal, yet I am craving light vegetable dishes.  I didn’t find vegetable dishes so plentiful in Europe and besides the carb craving, I have been wanting fresh veggies.  Tomorrow I’ll make my Hubby his meat!

I hope you have a great day, I am counting down the minutes to the weekend.  I have no plans, but to sleep in a little.  See ya tomorrow!

Toodles,

Jen

Happy December 1st! Can you believe it’s only 25 Happy December 1st! Can you believe it’s only 25 days until Christmas? I’m not ready yet!! But I did get my Christmas tablescape ready! 
🎄
I was gifted this beautiful table cloth by @cottonprintclub. It’s 100% cotton, comes in several sizes and colors, doesn’t bleed or shrink when washed. I love the shade of green and it is so beautiful that you can use it all year. 
🎄
I went with a simple tablescape to show off my beautiful plates that I received from @backcountrymercantile. All I added to my table was some garland, candlesticks and of course twinkling lights. Swipe the photo to see my table in the evening.

Do you have a food dish that you like to make during the holidays?

I ran and grabbed my dough bowl and filled it with Claire Burke Christmas Memories Potpourri that filled the room with the scent of cinnamon, cloves and Christmas trees. It’s perfect! The potpourri has gold and red accents in it. There are large and baby pinecones with white snow on them, and pinecones dipped in gold. This is the perfect potpourri for the season.

Happy World Kindness Day! This weekend I made my a Happy World Kindness Day! This weekend I made my annual snow jar to place on my shelf in the kitchen. You get a tiny sneak peak of my shelves at the end of the reel. The snow jars are so easy to do and you probably have most of the items on hand. 
💗
For the snow, I used blanket snow. You could also use, sugar or Epsom salt. I like the blanket snow because it’s not messy and it hides the fairy lights battery pack.
💗
The houses are ornaments that I bought at Target. I thought they were Perfect for my pink kitchen. Of course you can use whatever you have on hand. It doesn’t have to be a house and tree.
💗
If you buy fairy lights, make sure they have a timer on them. Trust me that will make life easier. If you don’t like fairy lights, you can use a faux candle. 
Ohhh and have a stack of batteries. I go through more batteries in the month of December then I do the rest of the year!
💗
Items used:
Apothecary jar
Fairy lights with timer
Pink house ornament
Bottlebrush tree
Pink ribbon 

Everything, but the pink ribbon was bought at Target. 
💗
Have fun creating! If you make one, tag me so I can share!!

Happy Monday! Here is a little throwback from last Happy Monday! Here is a little throwback from last years Christmas. I plan on doing green again in the living room. I just think it looks classic, plus I have all the decor already. So no need to buy more.
🎄
But I still do plan on doing pink in my kitchen. I figured I could use some pink everyday pieces that I already have and add pops of pink ornaments and pink little Christmas trees. I plan doing some shopping this week to see what I can find in pink. I’m so excited!! 
🎄
Have a fantastic Monday!

Happy Monday! Sorry I haven’t been on in awhile. Happy Monday! Sorry I haven’t been on in awhile. My husband was sick with the flu, then he passed it on to me. My dog even had an upper respiratory infection. Ugh! It was a rough 2 weeks. Then on Friday I had surgery to remove skin cancer on my chest. I’m sore and I can’t lift or exercise. Anyway, that’s why I have not been on.
🦇
I wanted to give you one last look at my Halloween kitchen before I change it out. Not sure if I’m going to add some Fall or Christmas next. Did you know Christmas is in 63 days? 😳
🦇
So I have been thinking about Christmas colors. The past 2 years I have done green and I love it, however I have always wanted to do a pink Christmas. Just not sure if I can pull it off? I don’t know if I want to go crazy and buy a bunch of pink? What color are you doing this year?
🦇
Have a great day!!
