Anywhoooooo... I should move on to the food before I anger some one :) This meal was absolutely delicious and so easy to make. If brie wasn't so expensive, I would seriously make this pasta once a week. It was heavenly!

Gosh I like the idea of the little zucchini sticks. Zucchini needs all the help it can get. Other cheeses are no doubt great subs.
93?!?!? I know you live in the desert, but 93?!?!? Oh, man. It was a sunny, balmy 36 or so here yesterday! Expecting a couple inches of snow tonight, though. Pasta is perfect no matter the weather, though: warmth in the cold, comfort in the a/c ... :)
I'd have to move to Nebraska. The pasta sounds delicious.
Gorgeous photos today, Jenn. Enjoy the warm weather. We are cold and damp here, so your pasta is perfect for a day like this. Have a great weekend. Blessings...Mary
Looks delish, Jenn! And it definitely fits the 'Friday Comfort Food' requirement. :-)
Have a great weekend!
93 degrees is pretty darn hot. We were in the 70's this week, so it doesn't surprise me that your temperatures were up. I've got brie in the fridge, chicken in the freezer. Guess what's for dinner next week. Thanks for the recipe Jenn.
And I was thinking this sunny low 70's temp was "warm", lol. This cheesy pasta sounds delicious!
While I'm so over winter that it's not EVEN funny, I am not ready for 95 by any means. I am ready for this pasta though. It looks amazing.
