Pasta with butter and cheese. My mom would make it with angel hair, but I like more noodle-y shaped pasta, so that is what I used. I swapped out butter for Earth Balance and nooch for cheese .I liked it growing up with something coated in bread crumbs - so I thought Matt would dig it with some Gardein strips. Don't mind the bite missing from the strip - Mar was my taste tester!
I have talked about this side dish before. My sister loved it growing up, it was her favorite. I have been thinking of my sister a lot lately so I had this dish in my mind as well.
What comfort food memories do you have when you think of family members? Do you make recipes in honor and memory of those no longer with you?
That sounds like a nice, comforting meal.
ReplyDeleteMost people I associate with food while growing up are still around in my life and I'm really grateful for that. So I had to mull over your question a bit to realise that whenever I make onion bajjis (deep fried fritters made of onions dipped in a chickpea flour batter), I think of my grandpa. It used to be his favourite snack when he was alive.
