Bow-Ties with Ham
Who doesn't love pasta? This is a tasty way to eat it with ham and asparagus. I will try it with broccoli instead next time, just for a change.

Beefy Ravioli
Beefy Ravioli is way too easy. It is basically just like making spaghetti. It's a nice change from an old classic. We love spaghetti around here. I love it on busy nights. I love pasta period. Beefy Ravioli takes no time at all to make and tastes soooo good. I decided to switch it up by using refrigerated cheese ravioli in place of spaghetti noodles. The result was delish! It didn't even take any more time than making spaghetti. You could throw in some sliced olives for a great … [Read more...]
