Today we celebrated the hubby’s birthday. Yes it is Memorial day, but a working day for moi, so I opted for an easy menu that I could prepare in advance.
Spaghetti was the star for the night, so all I had to do when I got back from work was boil the water, add some salt and toss the past in!
Turned on the oven and tossed in 2 bags of these fabulous Marketside Savory Garlic Knots that cook in 9 minutes and are just perfect to go with the pasta!
For the sauces I made 3 different kinds, this way everyone could either have a bit of everything, or just stick to their favorite! Oh please note I made the sauces yesterday so all I had today was heat them up!
- Basil Mint Pesto Sauce
- Alfredo Sauce
- Minced meat and argentinian chorizo in vodka sauce
So all in all, it took me 30 minutes to put dinner together, then popped open a bottle of fantastic wine that I purchased at Jerome Winery in Arizona whilst visiting my BFF last winter! And dinner was served 🙂
Had a fantastic evening with family and family friends and my favorite part being the after dinner table was filled with jokes, giggles, lots of laughter and love <3 and a little bit of Cold Stone’s Cookies and Cream Ice Cream Cake.
