Leek, Lemon and Goat Cheese One Pot Pasta

March 17, 2019 by The Runaway Spoon 3 Comments

A few years ago, I started reading about “one pot pasta” recipes on the internet. I pinned a couple, and was a little curious, but didn’t jump right on the bandwagon. I’ve never really thought of boiling the pasta separately as an overburdensome task. But then I did think about dirty dishes. I do A LOT of dishes, and many of my recipes have been streamlined to dirty as few as … [Read more...] about Leek, Lemon and Goat Cheese One Pot Pasta

Barbecue Pasta Salad

June 25, 2017 by The Runaway Spoon Leave a Comment

My hometown of Memphis is known far and wide for barbecue. And we’ve found ways to barbecue-ize everything. Pizza, nachos, pimento cheese (yes, I did that).

I have wanted to recreate that dish since … [Read more...] about Zucchini Pasta Bake with Mint Pesto

Squash Blossom Pasta Butter

I adore squash blossoms. A few local farmers market vendors sell them here, and I always buy as many as they have for sale. I make pesto, risotto, quesadillas, soup, and sometimes just lightly batter and fry them. I admit I have a little problem. I cannot resist buying them, and buying them in bulk. At the height of summer, I am in full canning mode, so I tend to bring home … [Read more...] about Squash Blossom Pasta Butter

Creamy Gorgonzola One Pot Pasta

January 1, 2017 by The Runaway Spoon Leave a Comment

The one pot pasta trend has been all over the internet for a while now. The idea is appealing – just one pot to clean with a complex pasta result. I’ve had some hits and misses, but landed on this as a delicious, creamy treat packed with tangy flavor. These recipes are often touted as quick, hands off meal. I don’t find that to be particularly true. You need to stir the pasta … [Read more...] about Creamy Gorgonzola One Pot Pasta

I'm P.C. I think I am like most people. Somewhere in the middle between food snob and food schlub. Just being in the kitchen makes me happy. I live, mostly in my kitchen, in my hometown of Memphis, Tennessee.
