| Brown Rice spaghetti with Walnut cream sauce |
Thank goodness I take after my mom! She taught me to always have pasta and some simple things around the house so dinner can be "poof done".
So when we got home from violin lessons and just wanted to eat, I started this dinner.
Organic brown rice spaghetti topped with a walnut, cream, parmesan and parsley sauce served with garlicy sauteed kale was on the table in 1/2 hour. YIpee!
If you want to make this wonder,
Use one package of Trader Joes or Tinkyada spaghetti and cook it according to the package.
Drain and leave it in the colander as you make the sauce.
Use 1/2 pint of half and half, 1 cup of walnut pieces, one bunch of chopped parsley and 1/2 cup of parmesan.
Put these into the hot pot and stir to warm.
Add back in the pasta, stir to coat and serve.
Yes it is very simple. Even my daughters can make this one if I drain the pasta.
The greens are just as simple.
Use one bunch of kale of your choice.
Chop the stems separate from the leaves.
Saute the stems 1st for 1 minute in 2 Tablespoons of olive oil
Then add 6 chopped cloves of garlic. Stir for another moment.
Add the chopped leaves and stir and cook till wilted.
serve on the side of the pasta.
Enjoy!

Wow, that looks delicious - I think I'll make that for dinner tonight!!! Thanks...
That looks absolutely wonderful. I enjoy Walnuts with my pasta - sorta similar to how I like Pine Nuts with pasta. MMMmmmmm.
That sounds fantastic! One question, though: where do you find shelled walnuts that are reliably not wheat-contaminated? I haven't yet found any that aren't "processed in a facility that also processes wheat". Thanks!
That looks terrific! I love walnuts and have never had them in a cream sauce or main dish like this. Hmmm, there's some gf fettucini in the pantry ...
Thanks,
Shirley
Thank you for sharing this on Friday Foodie Fix. Lots of garlic!
