I'm baaaaaaaack!

Ok, ok. SO! I have been TERRIBLE at keeping up with this. But, I have been sick for 5 weeks, and I was in the states for 2 weeks. SO, That's a good excuse right!? Right. I do come bearing delicious recipes though!


Tonight I made some of the most delicious pasta I have ever eaten, EVER. It's a spicy thai pasta.


You're going to need :

1 tbsp crushed red pepper
1/2 cup sesame oil
6 tbsp soy sauce
7 tbsp honey
1 cup diced carrots
1/2 cup green onions
1/2 cup cilantro, chopped
1/2 cup peanuts, chopped
Angel hair pasta

Seriously, I am the king (er, queen) of chopping things.

To get started, go ahead and get that pasta cooking. Now grab another sauce pan and heat up your sesame oil and crushed red pepper on medium heat. Keep an eye one it, because you don't want the pepper burning. Once that's done, strain the peppers out of your oil.  NOW! Mix your sesame oil (the one you just got all of the peppers out of) soy sauce, and honey. Finish up your pasta, it should be ready to strain about now. Here is the hard part! (or something) mix your sauce and your pasta. It's going to look a little liquidy, that's not even a word, but you get it.

 Throw in all of the stuff that you've chopped up, and you're done! That's literally it. Easy right!?

Now, I am going to warn you. This pasta is not for the faint of heart. SO! If you're not in to spicy things either omit the crushed red pepper all together OR if you like pizazz but only in small quantities maybe use a quarter tbsp.


We had ours with salmon that was rubbed with soy sauce & brown sugar. If you want to have the salmon also, preheat your oven to 425, lay out a piece of aluminum foil put your salmon on it splash a little soy sauce, sprinkle a little (or if you're me, a lot) brown sugar on it. Cook it for 15 minutes, and voila! If you've never done salmon before you can tell it's done by just placing a fork on the fish and dragging it to see if it flakes. Easy, huh?

And this is it. Admit it, you wanna eat it.

Enjoy!
