Friday night dinner plan {post-inspiration}: fresh-handmade-homemade-whole wheat-mac-a-chini!
The inspiration came from From Me to You, a photographer's blog, that featured homemade pasta. It looked so easy, and so tasty!
Follow the photos and enjoy!
Use kithenaid mixer and pasta attachment with favorite pasta dough recipe.
I decided to use whole wheat flour, eggs, and water.
voila! thus the name, mac-a-chini...not exactly macaroni shells or fettucini :)
Boil pasta then strain. Mix favorite toppings for pasta. Ours included: ground turkey, oregano, garlic, red onions, diced tomatoes and fresh spinach!
Serve in bowl and add a sprinkle of mozarella cheese.
Enjoy!
Once we get a handle on this pasta-making business...we'll be hosting more pasta parties (well, that's the hope at least)! I hope it tastes good!
We're going to have Italian food for my birthday...but it probably won't be as healthy as this was!
much agape,
Megan

That looks fabulous Megan! I need to get the pasta attachment for my Kitchen Aid. I have the meat grinder but have yet to use it. I'll put both on my list of things to do : )
ReplyDeleteyes! definitely get the pasta attachment! We got it for Christmas and had never used it...I'm glad we tried it out! enjoy, and let me know how it works out!
ReplyDeleteOh my, that looks amazing. I just purchased a cookbook on baking with whole grains... maybe pasta will have to be next-yum!
