Easy Pasta Recipe- Sun-Dried Tomato Pesto

Super easy and super yummy. I am not really a fan of regular basil pesto (don’t hate it, just don’t love it.) I double the recipe and keep some in the fridge.

Look around and see what kind of compromising you are willing to do between taste and price. Read more

Easy Cheap Pasta- Thai Peanut Sauce

Because of the cheap and easy nature of pasta I am always looking for new ways to eat it. This is a little different and if you’re really into asian flavors I think you will love it. You might have to invest in a couple of ingredients at first, but everytime you make this your cost per meal will go down. Waste not and all that.:)
Let me know if you like it! Read more

I’ve made this with both goat cheese and gorgonzola and if you’ve never tried goat cheese you might want to give it a shot. But if you’re a blue cheese fan and you know it go for the gorgonzola.
