You would expect Chef Achatz's macaroni and cheese to have some chef tricks, but it doesn't. He uses a white sauce, elbow macaroni and cheddar cheese, just like the rest of us. His personal touch: a tablespoon...
A very fresh, healthy pasta dish that can be adapted to your own liking very easily. You could add chicken, shrimp, scallops, etc if you want a more substantial dish. The best part is the smell of the...
My partner and I love this fresh, summer pasta dish. It's adapted from Super Food Ideas magazine (October 2005). Occasionally I'll add some fresh leg ham, torn into pieces at the last step, particularly...
I got this recipe from a local supermarket and it has become a family favorite in our household. It is quick and easy, but it turns out beautiful and it looks like you spent more time preparing it. You...
I found this recipe in a magazine, in a Philly (cream cheese) ad. I modified it to make it healthier, and was honestly WOW-ed when I tried it - it's that good! Hope it WOW-s you too!
I was obsessed with this dish from Macaroni Grille when I was pregnant. This is the closest I could come to recreating it at home so it didn't cost so much! This is also great without the chicken. Make...
Another simple, vegetarian pasta and veggie dish; VERY low in fat and calories, and the balsamic vinegar works it's wonders once again! I eat this often during lent, and leftovers are also good cold the...
Gremolata is the zesty mixture of parsley, lemon and garlic that is added at the last minute to zip up osso buco. Here, it becomes the basis of a pasta sauce instead. From a now defunct health mag. Add...
I got this recipe from my now ex MIL. This takes a little time, so I only make it once in a blue moon, but it is soooo worth it! I always get rave reviews with this recipe and it tastes even better the...

Delicious Creamy Cheesy pasta. I bake it most of the time because I love the melted cheese on top but its also really good without baking and you save 15 mins .. hee hee hee .. Try it first without and...
This is most definitely not healthy food - but for a once in a blue moon splurge it's fabulous!! Recipe shared by rolo123 at allrecipes. We're not really breakfast eaters, so I used the full pound of bacon...
My husband and I are commuters so the last thing we want to be spending a lot of time on in the evenings is dinner. This pasta bake is quick and filling, and it makes great leftovers too.
So simple and so good! I'm a traditionalist and usually cook my sauce all day, but, we now have this 1 X wk and several finicky friends also love the taste (none knew it had vodka) I like using Barilla...
Baked Ziti is such a simple and classic meal and makes a good OAMC dish. This is a good one to throw leftover veggies in too. Originally seen in the book Frozen Assets.
I first had this at a friend's house for dinner and loved it. I asked her for the recipe and could not believe it when she said it had mayonnaise in it! She said her Great Aunt made it this way all her...
