Thanks For The #Pastabilities Klout

By now, most of you guys know that I love to cook.  It’s less about the eating…although I can’t deny my love of food, and more about the creating of something from nothing. That, and getting beautiful Instagram pics to share with the goal of inspiring others to cook makes me happy.  I’m lucky to have 2 very good built-in eaters so my creations never go uneaten.
As much as I cook though, I rarely make pasta.  Not sure why cause we all like it but it seems heavy and carb-loaded so I serve it up in moderation.
Today seemed like a good day for a pasta dish and wouldn’t you know it, it was also the day that my latest Klout Perk arrived; Baked Pasta Chips, Yumm!

I took that as a sign and went to work afterall, what’s easier to make than pasta? Nada!
You might have also noticed that I use a lot of Trader Joe’s ingredients.  For one, it’s the closest market to our house and where we do most of our food shopping.  Two, their selection is vast, delicious and ever changing which makes it fun to discover and play with new products.
These are the ingredients that I used for tonight’s dinner…all from Trader Joe’s and all organic and meatless.

Cook the pasta (I used Organic Vegetable Radiatore), drain and drizzle in olive oil.

In a sauce pan, warm up the Tomato Sauce and drop in the Meatless Meatballs.  Season with garlic powder & sprinkle in Parmesan for flavor.

Scoop pasta into a bowl, cover with sauce and go crazy with the Parmesan chesse…I did!

So easy, so healthy and most of all, so delicious!
Now, where are those Pasta Chips? Can’t wait for the #pastabilities
