I am coming off such an incredible weekend and needed Monday’s dinner to be as easy as Cacio e Pepe. Served Two Ways!
The first way is rather traditional made with spaghetti and lots of cheese and pepper!
The second is prepared with spaghetti squash! Equally as delicious, gluten free and low carb friendly!

We shall make Chicken Marsala Meatballs. Because TODAY is National Meatball Day!
With the way I love meatballs, this food holiday is deserving of a celebration.
A Meatball Palooza if you will.
I have so many meatball recipes to share (and several I’ve yet to create) that we’ll need days to properly honor those perfectly packaged bundles of love.
I shall call this celebration March Meatball Madness and share a meatball recipe every day for the remainder of the month.

Pasta alla Norma is an Italian pasta and eggplant dish with roots in the ancient port city of Catania, Sicily.
My husband’s ancestors also have roots in Catania! Lucky for me it’s where we visited on a dream vacation a few years back.

bucatini, fresh basil, garlic, guanciale, onion, pecorino romano cheese, red pepper flakes, San Marzano tomatoes
Bucatini all’Amatriciana is one of those recipes.
For as much cooking as I/we do there remains an incredible gap in my culinary knowledge.
I am drawn to classic recipes like this one. It’s the history that surrounds them that draws me in. Which inevitably leads to recipe inspiration.
