Spaghetti & Cheese Nest: Quick, Easy, Healthy, Simple Pasta Recipe Spaghetti and cheese. Yup. Not much more & not anything less. I cannot think of anyone that does not like a comforting bowl of hearty carbs with gooey melted cheese. With these nests I wanted to get a bit playful with presentation. These spaghetti nests are great in the kids lunch box. This pasta is also great for #MeatlessMonday. These spaghetti nests get a bit crispy on top & warm & creamy in the centers after they are baked.

Spicy Sweet Potato Fries w/ Avocado Dip I think it’s perfectly acceptable to have Sweet Potato Fries for dinner–especially on a Monday night. Sure you could add a side salad into the mix or even pair it with a perfectly grilled steak, but what I want on the first day of a busy week is something that’s both easy and comforting. I also don’t want to share Spicy Sweet Potato Fries with anybody else on any day that ends in Y. These fries have such a wonderful spice to them…at times a little too spicy…but the spice is extinguished by this cool avocado dip that’s both creamy and tangy thanks to the limes. I imagine some of you might enjoy a batch of these while watching trashy TV. And we’re off! Ingredient gathering! Here we have the spicy flavor component! Cut each sweet potato up into 8 segments. What I learned is that the smaller the fry, the crispier it gets. Toss them in a bowl with olive oil and spice mixture. Place the fries on a foil lined baking sheet. When they’re crowded, they steam rather than crisp. Instant dip! Yeah…
