Sabelli's Pasta


This is a family recipe of an aunt with Italian origins. It is so good and so easy! 




3 cups of ripe cherry tomatoes
4 cloves of garlic, thinly sliced
1/4 cup of extra virgin olive oil
1 teaspoon sea salt
pinch of sugar
fresh cracked pepper
1/2 cup coarsely chopped basil
1 lb. linguini
freshly grated parmesan cheese




Slice tomatoes in half and place in heavy baking dish.  Sprinkle sliced garlic on top.  Drizzle with about a quarter cup olive oil and sprinkle with sea salt and pepper.  Roast in a 400 degree oven for 25-30 minutes or until garlic is tender.  Remove from oven and toss with fresh basil.  Serve with freshly grated parmesan cheese.  

Bruschetta

We love bruschetta! It's a big mound of deliciousness! One bite, and you're in Italy!


Tomatoes
Fresh Mozzarella Cheese
Fresh Basil
French Bread
Olive Oil
Garlic


First, slice the bread 1 inch thick.

Then, rub each side of the bread with the sliced garlic. You have enough on it when you can smell garlic when your nose is 1 inch away from the bread!


Next, brush both sides of the bread with the olive oil.

Then place the bread on the griddle and cook on high until golden brown.








Crumble mozzarella cheese with your fingertips.

Put the cheese on the bread.

 

Then dice tomatoes.

Then chop basil.

Done! It was so delicious we ate it for dinner!

Kate's tip of the day!

When making sugar cookies, cut out the shapes then refrigerate 

again. If you do this, the cookies will have sharper edges after you bake them. Everyone likes neater cookies!
