If you get excited over pasta, if you crave the versatility of this frugal yet gourmet ingredient…well, this Presto Pasta Post is for you!
We got some incredible entries this week, that had me drooling. ABSOLUTELY. I don’t know how you do it, but the easiest way to grab a recipe that you like is to copy it to your word program and then print it out. I keep them in a plastic sleeve (available at Office Depot) in a temporary notebook. After I have made the dish the recipe either goes into the permanent notebook OR the trash. 
So…get your printer finger ready…
