pasta all'arrabbiata

'arrabbiata' is italian for 'angry.' this pasta sure is angry, at least in the spicy & fiery sense. {courtesy of the addition of peperoncino, or chili pepper.} arrabbiata sauce is so very simple to make, with few ingredients: olive oil, garlic, onion, tomato, peperoncino, and parsley. traditionally arrabbiata is served with penne pasta, however, i used capellini instead. yum.

sunshine toast.

happy friday! i woke up to sunshine & blue skies this morning. aka the most perfect day for a sunshine toast brekkie. {sunshine toast is an easy and fun twist on the standard eggs & toast.} i decided to fry up a veggie sausage patty, as well. yum!

sunshine toast.

ingredients:

• olive oil & butter
• one slice any sort of bread
• cookie cutter
• egg
• salt & pepper to taste

directions:

1. heat up a tablespoon or two of olive oil in a medium sized pan.
2. using a cookie cutter, cut a hole in the middle of a slice of bread.
3. butter both sides of the bread, {including the extra bit,} and toast in pan.
4. flip bread over and crack the egg directly into the hole.
5. season with salt & pepper and finish cooking until the egg is set how you like.
6. serve with toasted cut-out.

voila! there you have it:
