Creamy Fettuccine with Ham and Peas

April 11, 2012

I have an old, old recipe on here for a creamy fettuccine. It’s delicious. But not exactly calorie-friendly, thanks to my BFF, heavy cream. When my friend, Lesli, sent me the recipe I’m posting today, I was immediately intrigued by the cut in calories and fat, thanks to a creamy sauce made very similarly to [...]

April 2, 2012

Love this meal. Love it. Hearty. Simple. Quick. And downright delicious.

Delicious Greek Pastitsio {Casserole-Style}

January 23, 2012

This simple Greek pastitsio knock-off (and I’m not claiming it’s authentic, people) is basically a deconstructed pastitsio in casserole form. And it is downright, knock-your-socks-off delicious. A lightened up, creamy sauce swirls around tender penne pasta and flavorful ground turkey or sirloin. Combined with the other gentle flavors (hints of nutmeg, tomatoes and garlic) and [...]
