People who have never tasted pasta must live on some island, because this kind of food is so common and popular. I love pasta as if I was born in Italy but it’s not true. There are so many kinds of it that one life is hardly enough to taste all of them. However, it is not important for me, because I chose my favorite kind long ago when I was a child. It is spaghetti. I learnt everything about it and the only thing I can learn the whole life – sauces for spaghetti. I know dozens of them but I am always glad to find new ones.
The recipe I saw on this website looked new and I added it to my cookbook. [/su_column] [/su_row] Most of sauces for spaghetti include tomatoes but here I noticed something new in description and decided to practice.
I can say now that the result of my cooking, I mean the tomatoes, exceeded my expectations. The flavor of parsley, basil and garlic made the dish refined. If you try spaghetti with this sauce, you will want to have it more and more. There must be someone to stop you, though this dish is not dangerous for your figure, that’s one more reason of my love to pasta and the tomatoes (by this recipe) especially – it is a low-calorie kind of sauce.
Cook, enjoy and don’t worry about your figure!

I don’t live in the kitchen, that is, I don’t spend much time there – it is honestly. I cook for my husband of course, but more often he doesn’t let me cook after work and have dinner outside. I don’t know for sure, whether he finds me too tired to do anything at home, or dislikes my cooking. I was going to check it.I needed a good recipe of nourishing, delicious and not very difficult dish. My colleagues gave me some recipes, but that was wrong – I needed something special to prove (if it was necessary) that I am the best wife and cook in the world.Thank you, my dear inventors of the internet! I found that so much needed recipe here.
Follow the recipe and learn what is “yummy” for a man.

[/su_row]
I studied the ingredients, bought the ones that were missing and started. Cooking pasta is easy even for a child – ok, I did that. Then playing with ingredients in a skillet – I’ve loved having fun with it since childhood. In the end I topped my masterpiece in the skillet with a piece of bacon. I started swallowing. Thank God – my husband returned from work! He ran into the kitchen and he was astonished – a dish of Creamy Stove Mac with Bacon was in the centre of the table, waiting for him.What did he say, eating and after it? Just – “yummy” and “can you cook the same tomorrow?”
Men don’t need too many words and this time I didn’t need them either. Simply yummy!

I wouldn’t ever believe that people hating pasta exist, but it’s easy to find the ones who are indifferent to it – it’s true. It’s personally me. Recently it changed very much. I’ve got a recipe on this blog that will surprise people loving or hating spaghetti, but all of them will be fed and happy, having eaten a plate of spaghetti salad.Yes! It’s a salad. You could have thought that it’s a strange mixture – vegetables and a kind of pasta. I want to prove the difference.There is great deal of various vegetables, a little of broken spaghetti; they are mixed, seasoned by fantastic, refined dressing of parmesan, garlic powder and paprika. Unlike mayonnaise, this dressing imparts lightness and smell of it can easily attract everybody, even people who satisfied their hunger with full meal. You could be imagining the flavor now. Fantasize about the taste! No, it’s not for hungry people to use imagination. I recommend you making this unique salad and have it at a family dinner or a noisy party – it will disappear from the table and I already know you will be asked about the recipe, because it’s really worth cooking and eating with pleasure.

I don’t need anybody to tell me what a good housekeeper I am, because I know it myself. I love my family – my men. They are everything for me and cooking for them is as pleasant for me as spending our leisure time together. I have a rule – clean flat and fed boys (husband and sons). I never get tired in the kitchen cooking something delicious for them. Some dishes I cook specially for my guys and some of them we like to have all together on weekends. For example, we love pasta so much that I suspect us to be Italians.Pasta is perfect for Sunday morning – it takes very little time to cook. Simple pasta is not very interesting and I was inventing different variants of cooking pasta, I was looking for some special recipe in the Internet and I happened to find it on this blog. My family and me got absolutely satisfied with this Skillet Pasta. Why? I can say “ just a moment, boys” and I don’t lie ‘cause it takes me just some minutes to cook the dish which we loved so much. I cooked it even for our friends who visited us unexpectedly – hint for busy housekeepers. Well, I want you to have the recipe of Skillet Pasta with Sausage too.
