How to Cook Quick Chicken Pasta! Dinner Tonight: Tortellini Pasta Salad. Dinner Tonight: Tortellini Pasta Salad Posted by Blake Royer, July 6, 2011 at 3:15 PM Frozen tortellini is on my list of top-five staples.
They're always in my freezer. I typically go the simple route: melt butter in a skillet, let it cook until nutty and brown, then add the tortellini in with whatever fresh herbs are around, a heap of Parmesan, and lots of black pepper.

Call it what you will, but this one's worth adding to the summer picnic rotation. Bring a medium saucepan of water to boil. Veggie Box: Kale with Pasta, Chicken and Bacon.

It's often said that a work of great design is complete only when there's nothing to add, and nothing to take away.
Without taking cooking too seriously, I'd say this is true of recipes as well. More often than not, a great dish will either surprise you with an unexpected addition, or more often, by removing what doesn't need to be there. Sometimes it's both. And that's true of this gem from Patricia Wells' recent book Salad as a Meal. I've had and enjoyed recipes with pasta and tuna before, including, of course, the famous Tuna Casserole. Either way, it sort of melts into the dish leaving behind tiny orbs of spiciness that cling to the noodles. Chicken Florentine Pasta. I made this for a late lunch Saturday, and it absolutely completed me.
It also absolutely completed my fourteen-year-old daughter, whose love of pasta is surpassed only by that of her mother, otherwise known as me. She and I took turns filling our little bowls and wolfing down helpings of the spinach-and-tomato packed pasta deliciousness, our contentment level increasing with each cylinder of penne. It was a mother-daughter pasta moment, is what I’m saying. And it was beautiful. I can sure talk something to death, can’t I? Never mind.

Dinner Tonight: Linguine with Heirloom Tomato, Capers, Anchovies, and Chile. This Michael Symon recipe from Live to Cook is the kind of pasta dish I adore.
Namely because the sauce is cooked quickly, using a mix of fresh, in-season produce and salty cured products. When the pasta is done cooking, it's tossed right into the pan with the sauce, so that each bite is coated with the flavorful mixture. It actually comes off something like a mix between a funky puttanesca and a fiery all'amatriciana. About the pasta: Symon suggests that you use fresh linguine, but I subbed it for the dried stuff (that's all I could find at my corner market). It definitely worked, but use the fresh kind if you can find it. Really, the only requirement here is that you use really good tomatoes.
