Yippee...It's Friday!
I love Fridays because Mr Attorney brings me flowers! What a sweetie!
I also love Fridays because it is when I blog about one of my favourite things....Cooking!
I tried a new recipe for a creamy pasta sauce the other night and it was delicious. It is very easy, quick and healthy because I used a new Philly product.
Philly Cream for Cooking has 60% less fat than regular cream and it is gluten-free.
Put 1 can of crushed tinned tomatoes, 2 anchovy fillets, some chopped spring onion, garlic and olive oil in a heavy-based pan and cook over a medium heat until the garlic is soft. Season with pepper.
While this is cooking, add your choice of pasta to a large pan of boiling salted water and cook until al dente. Add a splash of wine to the sauce and cook until the alcohol has evaporated.
Save some to drink later!
When the pasta is nearly cooked, add the prawns to the sauce and stir in the philly cream. I used frozen green prawns that had already been shelled. Warm through gently for a couple of minutes.
Just before serving add some washed baby spinach leaves to the sauce and cook for about one minute. Then drain the pasta and toss with the pasta sauce.
Divide between warm plates.
Serve immediately!
We also had steamed broccolini on the side.
It must have been good as Big Al went back for seconds!
Please let me know if you try this yummy and easy recipe!
I hope that you, my sweet friends, have a fun Friday and that your weekend is fabulous!
Thanks for visiting and for spending some of your day time with me! I so appreciate your visit!
Best wishes,
Love this Easy Pasta, looks delicious. I had just cooked Penne with Broccoli Sauce few days ago, also very healthy.

I see you like to have a glass of white wine while you are cooking...a little for me, a little for the recipe. Sometimes I cook like that too! Ha Ha!!

That is such a treat that you get flowers every Friday!!!!
ReplyDeletethat recipe looks fantastic i admit I actually don't love cooking, mainly because I have a fussy boring husband when it comes to food and I am terrible at planning, but I am definetly going to try this one, not just saying this will report back and let you know how I go. I love Fridays for all the reasons you mentioned too, aswell as you don't have to think about uniforms for tomorrow, cheers Katherine
ReplyDeleteHi Natasha,
ReplyDeleteLooks & sounds like a fab dinner, it's hard to get Philly here in France but I could find a substitute I think. Gotta love a cook who drinks white wine whilst prepping dinner! Cheers!
BTW I met Sister Stacey this week when she popped over to Normandy to visit the cows.
Have a great weekend.
