Whenever I have time to make this dish, I will make way too more than we can eat for one meal, simply because both my husband and my son love it so much! And it tastes perfectly cheesy, creamy, hearty even after you re-heat it. Ingredients (around 20 cannelloni): Cannelloni 20 cannelloni 1/2 cup cooked [...]

Macaroni, Mushroom and Cheese Bake
I would say this macaroni and cheese recipe from Jamie Oliver is one of the swear-to-god-ly easy recipe ever invented. No bechamel sauce is needed.

Spaghetti and Meatballs
It’s been a while since last time I posted on my blog. But I do keep browsing other blogs……just to keep myself in the cooking mode.Well, though my baby is still a baby (5 months old), I’ve already been imagining cooking his favorite food for him, making cookies/cupcakes with him; been wondering how he likes [...]
Summer is ending soon. It’s time to “keep good storage” of the home-grown basil. What would be the better way than turning these fragrant buddies into a big jag of pesto – perfect staple for a quick pasta dinner. (serves 2)Ingredients:For Basil Pesto (I made a big jar and keep it in fridge):6 cups fresh [...]
