Definitions

Okay, so let us define what I mean when I say baking adventures.  You may think you will only find sweets and delicacies on this blog.  But I also love to cook as much as I love to bake.  Baking will be the main focus of this blog, but don't be surprised if you find the occasional dinner recipe that I have concocted in my kitchen.  Most of my dinners are made up of whatever I have in the fridge at any given time.  This does not always lend itself to recipes I find in cookbooks, therefore I plan to share with you the dinners that turn out especially well (or terribly bad) out of the randomness that is our refrigerator. 

For example, Pasta ale 'whatever is in my fridge'

1/2 lb. Short Pasta (I used Cavatappi because its my favorite short pasta but any one will work)
1 onion
2 tomatoes
2-3 cloves garlic
olive oil
2 cups fresh spinach
crumbled goat cheese

Heat large pot of water to boiling.  Once water boils add pasta, salt and pepper.  Cook pasta until al dente.  Drain pasta, reserving about 1/2 cup for the sauce.  Dice the onion and tomato.  In a medium pan heat olive oil and add onion.  Chop garlic and add to onion.  Dice tomatoes and add to the onions and garlic, also add the cooking liquid.  Cook on medium until onions are tender and liquid has reduced.  Add the spinach and cook until wilted.

Toss the sauce with the pasta and add in the crumbled goat cheese.  Serve warm or cold the next day is good too.

I wish I would have taken a picture, I will from now on.  But this is a really easy pasta dish that required very few ingredients.  Hope you enjoy!
