Bow tie pasta with “datterini” tomatoes, mini bufala mozzarella, olives, basil olive oil and Parmesan. Few top quality ingredients, that’s the secret of Italian cousins. The ingredient selection is what makes the difference, recipes are very easy to assemble.
The sauce is raw, easy to prepare while the pasta is cooking. Chop the tomatoes. Datterini is a super sweet variety, cherry tomatoes will work too. Few Taggiasca olives, basil leaves, a pinch of salt and a drizzle of olive oil. I added the Parmesan to the sauce so that it would melt with the hot pasta later and perfectly combine with the sauce in a cream.

This is a great baby/toddler/kid/parents/grandparents recipe. Difficult to find someone who doesn’t like it!

Let me know what you think.
Ciao!!

P.s.
Our Italian summer is incredible. We love every single minute. Being able to hug family and friends after 2.5 years simply warms our souls. I’ve not been very active on social media lately, but I’m gathering so many yummy ideas from the markets I see and the delicious local produce here. Stay tuned! ...

10 minutes 3 ingredients broccoli pasta.
A lifesaver when you need to feed your kiddos in no time and you still want to offer a balanced and nutritious meal. Like me today. 🤣 This is also a great recipe to introduce your kids to broccoli in a yummy way.
The parmesan&butter are key ingredients. They create a creamy cheesy coating around the broccoli that makes them irresistible.

Ingredients:
1/2 lb pasta of your choice
1 bag frozen broccoli florets
3 Tbsp butter
6 Tbsp grated Parmesan cheese

Procedure:
Boil the pasta following the instructions on the packaging. Reserve 1 cup of starchy boiling water. Thaw the broccoli florets in the microwave and chop them in small pieces. Cut the butter in small cubes. Drain the pasta. In a large bowl mix everything: pasta, butter, broccoli, Parmesan, 1/2 cup starchy pasta water. Serve and enjoy! ...

Cranberry Orange Scones. A staple in our house and grandma’s favorite recipe. So easy to prepare and never fails! Want to try?

INGREDIENTS:
2 1/2 cups flour
1/2 cup sugar
2 1/2 tsp baking powder
1/2 tsp salt
1/2 cup milk
8 Tbsp butter (1 stick), cold from freezer and cut in cubes
1 1/2 cup dried cranberries or any other dried fruit
zest of 1 orange

PROCEDURE:
In a bowl add all the ingredients starting from the flour + sugar + salt + baking powder + cold butter in small cubes.
Mix and slowly add the milk. In less than 2 min you will have your dough. Add the cranberries and orange zest. Take 1 Tbsp of batter and Place it on some parchment paper on a baking sheet. No special shape needed. Space the scones a bit in between each other. Sprinkle some cane sugar on top. Bake to 400F for 25’.
Store on the countertop. They will last one week/10 days, but I'm sure they will be gone before that!!

Light and tasty. Zucchini and fresh tomato olive pasta. An easy family recipe for weeknights ready in 30 min total from when you open the fridge to when you serve it to the table. A great way to offer zucchini to your little ones.

Ingredients:
1 lb. Short shaped pasta (boil in water salted with 1 Tbsp sea salt)
4 medium zucchini, cut in pieces
2 medium red onions, minced
5 super ripen tomatoes, peeled and seeds removed. Pulp only, roughly chopped
4 Tbsp olive oil
1/2 tsp sea salt
3 Tbsp Taggiasca olives, pitted and minced
6 basil leaves
6 Tbsp grated Parmesan cheese

Procedure.
Bring to boil a large pot full of water and add the pasta when the water is boiling. Add also 1 tbsp of sea salt. Reserve 1 cup of starchy boiling water to thin the sauce if needed.
In a skillet, heat the olive oil for 1 min at medium. Add the red onion and cook for 3/4 minutes up until nicely golden. Stir every minute. Add the zucchini, adjust with salt and keep cooking for another 5 minutes until the zucchini are nice and tender. Then add the tomato pulp and the olives, stir and turn the heat off. You do not want the tomato to cook. Drain the pasta and combine with the sauce. Add some of the starchy water from the pasta to thin the sauce if needed. Add the Parmesan cheese, fresh basil, mix and serve!
