i made this pasta from smitten kitchen (the pictures are hers, not mine) on wednesday and though it was a hit on wednesday night, i have to say that i enjoyed it even more leftover for lunch yesterday.

if you haven’t been to this delightful food blog, and you love to cook or you just love great pictures of good food, you should definitely check it out. i spent hours there this week looking for new inspiration for this slower in produce, hotter than heck, late august season. there is still great food to be made, even if the blackberries at the river market are long gone (but not forgotten). i am going to try this tomorrow, because i noticed at the river market last week that the bigger squash varieties are in.

and here’s the link to the pasta primavera recipe. i did saute my onions and used roasted red peppers, just because i prefer them to raw ones. also i added buffalo mozzarella chunks, because i had it around and you just can’t ever have too much fresh moz in the summertime. (or anytime?)
