Epicurious: Fresh Pasta with Favas, Tomatoes and Sausage

When winter begins to chill my bones, I start to crave some comfort food to warm my soul! I love pasta, and eat it quite often. This recipe from Epicurious is easy and very hearty!  After a belly warming meal, I love to finish off with a slice of chocolate cake!  My grandmother used to bake cakes a few times a week, along with her pies!  This year, I plan to make a few in her honour!  Epicurious and Martha Stewart are in my book marks and I just recently added Jamie Oliver's site!

I love the website Jamie Oliver! He has the best recipes and garden tips!  
This looks amazing!! I can't wait to make this, 
you can hardy it up with some sausage & sage!

His Beef and Ale Stew is rocking my world!!
Just look at that!! Yummmm mmmmme!

A few of my favorite Jamie cook books:

What are your favorite meals for winter?

  1. Ok, you had me at that chocolate cake! I used to swear by Laura Colwin's recipes for writers (out of print) but have started cooking everything in Terry Walter's new book (so yummy!). This post is inspiring me to revive my herb garden drowned in some early fall rains.
