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

☀️🌸☀️WELCOME to the FLOWER LOVIN' FRIE ☀️🌸☀️WELCOME to the FLOWER  LOVIN' FRIENDS DECOR TOUR! 
M🌸Y every flower lift your spirits!

I am sharing with you my Everblooming Hydrangea. This is a full sun hydrangea. I planted it last year and it did so crappy. I was shocked to see so many flowers on it. We have had a relatively cool Spring, so it’s been happy. Today it got hot out and I just went out to look at the hydrangea and it’s shriveling. So I need to capture this moment before it poops out this summer.

We are a fabulous group of friends sharing their love of flowers and elements of nature inside and outside our homes throughout the seasons!

Happy Wednesday! We are half way through the week. Happy Wednesday! We are half way through the week. I can’t believe that this weekend is Mothers Day. It just seems early this year. I am not sure what are plans are going to be this weekend?
🌷
I am sharing with you the @krumpetshomedecor deal of the week. It’s a set of two mango wood trays with a beautiful rope handle.
🌷
The bigger tray I used to make a tulip arrangement. It’s such a great size. The last photo is also how I used the tray on my bed. The smaller tray is perfect for holding my olive oils in my kitchen. These trays will fit in about  any space. I just love them.
🌷

Happy Tuesday! Boy allergy season has hit me hard. Happy Tuesday! Boy allergy season has hit me hard. I have been sneezing like crazy and then my nose runs. Ugh! I never have allergies. It must be all the crazy weather. We’ve had high winds since last Tuesday and temps in the 70’s. Tomorrow mid 90’s, then back to the 70’s. No wonders my allergies are acting up.
🌸
I’ve been adding a little decor to my patio area. I love adding pillows and blankets for pops of color and to give a cozy feel. One of my newest additions is my new Verdure Wooden Candle Lantern that I got from @icosiest_furniture. It adds a romantic ambience in the evening.
🌸
The lantern is made from Fir wood and has a beautiful jute handle. The lantern can be hung or placed on a table. The candle is battery operated and looks so beautiful flickering in the evening. Swipe the photo to see it.
🌸
I love the style of the lantern and it would also look fabulous styled indoors. I can see the lantern on a shelf, centerpiece or on a console table. 
🌸
For a closeup of the lantern, check out my highlight. COSIEST was kind enough to give my followers a 15% off anything in there store: Jennifer15. The link is in my bio. 
🌸
Do you have allergies? If so, are they bad for you this year?

Happy Monday! Hope you had a nice weekend. We had Happy Monday! Hope you had a nice weekend. We had such beautiful weather. It was in the 70’s and sunny. I did a lot of work outside. Got some plants planted and rearranged my patio because I was #gifted a new dining set from @alphamartsus 
🌷
I am so excited to have an outdoor dining set. It’s going to be so fun to eat dinner outside, in front of my zinnia garden and water fountain. I’m so excited, you have no idea. 
🌷
The dining set is the PHI VILLA Rattan Dining Chairs Set with Extendable Table Patio Dining Set. The set I have is the 9 piece, but they also have a 7 piece set. You have your choice of chairs, cushioned or high back. I like the high back. The chair gives great support and is so comfortable to sit on.
🌷
The table is made of high quality metal with a special powder coating that will with stand the outside elements. The table is 60” long but can be extended to 83”. It’s so easy to extend the table. The leaf is built in and just flips to make the table longer or shorter. Swipe to see the leaf and how long the table is extended. The first few pictures, the table is extended to 60”. 
🌷
For more information on the dining set, check out my highlight. The link for Alpha Mart is in my bio.
🌷
Do you like to entertain outside?

Happy Earth Day! I would share my garden today, bu Happy Earth Day! I would share my garden today, but the weather has been awful this week. We’ve had heavy rains, high winds and it was a chilly week. They even had tornado warnings north of us. So crazy.
💙
This week I took advantage of the crappy weather and gave my kitchen a good cleaning. I wiped down all the cabinets, washed the floor and cleared my counter of clutter. Now only if it would stay this clean.
💙
You can swipe and see what our kitchen looked like before. It was so small, now it’s the biggest room. I’m so happy with how it turned out. We did it all ourselves, accept installing the countertops.

What are your plans for the weekend?
