Pasta, Pesto on the Deck




Tomatoes are fabulous at this time of the year. We had bought lots of them from the Farmer’s Market. I made a salad of mixed tomatoes, Burrata Cheese, Almonds and a home made Basil Pesto. I simply blended lots of basil leaves, some olive oil, garlic, salt and pepper. It was great!

For the main course we made Lentil Pasta. This is a favorite pasta. We make it all of the time. Even though it is vegetarian, it has the consistency of a meat sauce. This is delicious pasta that you should try. The recipe for Italian Lentil Pasta is from Locanda Veneta in Los Angeles. You can find on our blog of: July 22, 2008. Click the date to get the recipe.
