tortellini mac and cheese with roasted garlic and rosemary

Quick post today! Last month, we were invited to an intimate multi-course dinner and cooking demo hosted by Barilla and pasta expert Nancy Silverton, chef and co-owner of the world-famous Osteria Mozza in Hollywood, CA. Inspired by her main course—Baked Barilla Collezione Tortellini with White Truffles—we created an original dish using some of the tips we learned from Nancy that evening. Introducing… Tortellini Mac and Cheese with Roasted Garlic and Rosemary! Cooked to perfection and blended in a creamy, cheesy sauce made with roasted garlic, three types of cheeses, and fresh rosemary, this elegant pasta dish is also topped with toasted breadcrumbs for a delightful golden crunch. We are taking mac and cheese to a whole new level, people. Make this comforting entrée tonight and add it to this year’s holiday menu!

Have you heard the word? There’s a new sauce on the scene—it’s lean, mean, and vibrant green.

People always ask us if we plan to open a restaurant. We’ve never seriously considered it just because we love cooking at home so much and don’t have any interest in working in a commercial kitchen. That said, we’ve discussed how inspiring it would be to develop an original menu for a restaurant filled with all our favorite creations… just as long as we didn’t have to work there on a daily basis, cooking and cleaning up after all those creations. Our conversations take place whenever we invent a new dish that is so good, we think it would be perfect for the Husbands’ bill of fare—and today’s recipe definitely makes the cut. Would you please give a warm welcome to the autumnal pasta of your dreams… Pumpkin Gemelli with Browned Butter and Sage.

pasta d’estate

"estate" means "summer" in Italian, and it doesn't get more summery than this!

This post was created in partnership with Barilla. All opinions are our own.

Last month, Husbands That Cook turned 4! On April 29, 2015 we published the first two recipes on our website—Triple Chocolate Fudge Brownies and Penne with Zucchini and Lemon. If someone were to tell us back then that we would soon have our own cookbook, we wouldn’t have believed it for a second. What began as a hobby and a creative outlet where we could share recipes with our friends and family quickly turned into a full-time gig. In just 4 years, we’ve had opportunities to travel all across the US, learning about exotic flavors and inventive cooking techniques, and meeting so many new friends along the way. But one thing hasn’t changed since day one—we are still obsessed with pasta! So today, to celebrate our 4-year blog anniversary, we thought what better way to do it than with a vibrant summer pasta featuring fresh basil, garlic, and colorful heirloom tomatoes. Let us introduce you to our newest recipe: pasta d’estate—it’s as romantic as it sounds.
