I love clams in pasta! I think this is going on the menu for this week - minus the peas since hubby doesn't like them.
This does sound good. I love clams...they sound perfect in here!
That looks delicious! I recently printed out a recipe from Lidia Bastianich which is similar it's clam sauce with broccoli!
Yumo Spryte! perfect summertime pasta dish :)
YUM!sounds absolutely delish! of course, anything is delicious with clams. ;)
I'm not a big clam fan, but the concept sounds great.
I get the same way with light cooking. I think it's because it used to be all rabbit food and rice cakes. Although my girlfriend actually like rice cakes. I always thought they should be used as coasters. ;)
Yummy. Garlic and clams, cant get much better than that.
Clam sauce pasta is an absolute favorite! This is a great recipe and one I'm certain to try! I love CL - their recipes are healthy while still tasting like luxurious food.
Isn't it the truth! It's when I'm eating unhealthy that I think healthy food is gross, but really, it's quite fantastic, as is this dish!
Mmm, you had me with garlicky..
This one I could smell - the memory of these flavors came through with this post....
Looks YUMMY. I'd have to change the clams to chicken though (sorry, can't help it LOL)but I like your swap with the italian parsley. I like basil and all but sometimes it can be too much. and I dont think my husband likes basil all that much.
