We have divided duties in our household – I’m the cook and my husband does the dishes. Needless to say, there are times that, while he might enjoy the meal, he’s not too pleased with the amount of dishes it took to get there. I always
try to be frugal with my dish and pot count, and I make every effort to clean as I go, but there always seem to be a flurry of activity at the very end that results in a pile of dirty dishes for Chris to clean. That’s one reason why I love this recipe – it only uses one skillet to cook the whole dish
(along with knives, cutting board and measuring cups/spoons). This is also one of our staple household dishes because it tastes great. It has a lot of flavor from the garlic and sun-dried tomatoes and the broth-based sauce is pretty light, with just a touch of milk and cheese. This is a great weeknight meal that comes together easy and clean up is a breeze.

As most of you know, my favorite food is bacon. There are a few other foods that follow very close behind on my list of top 10 (most of them not much healthier) – one of them being peanut butter (case in point). But, not much further down on the list is broccoli – another favorite food. And since broccoli is such a stellar super food in terms of vitamins and nutrients, I think it offsets any negative effects of the peanut butter and the combination makes for a tasty and quick pasta dinner.
