For the first time, Chef AJ introduced me to a semi-popular dessert dish I had never been interested in trying...Balsamic Strawberries. Actually, I was surprisingly pleased! Learn a bit about organic produce a la the Environmental Working Group's Clean 15 and Dirty Dozen and how to add an easy twist to fresh fruit for dessert...

Pasta fa' Julieanna

Last minute quick fix for pasta lovers...my problem is that I can't just eat one portion! Herb-y and balsamic-y...this dish is a real treat! Plus, we have our greens, so all is well with the world even when indulging in pasta. Just make sure to use a whole grain version so you get the fiber!
Recipe:
Boil water and add: 1 12 oz package whole grain pasta
While it is cooking, mix the following ingredients into a large bowl:
1 1/2 cups chopped fresh basil
1 tsp dried (or 1 Tbsp fresh) oregano
1 tsp dried (or 1 Tbsp fresh) rosemary
pinch or 2 of sea salt
black pepper to taste
1/2 cup (reduced) balsamic vinegar
About 1-2 minutes before the pasta is complete, add 2 cups (or more if you dare) fresh chopped spinach into the boiling pasta and water pot.
Drain and combine into the pre-made sauce. Stir well and enjoy!
Buon appetito! Ciao!
