In my quest to try and reduce the amount of meat that we consume, I find myself cooking a lot of pasta.

I was incredibly impressed with the recipe. It was so flavorful and so hearty, a great vegetarian entree. It was also very inexpensive – especially because I used dried black beans.

So I was searching for a quick and easy pasta dish last week and stumbled on this delicious meal. It’s not exactly the most healthy meal, but I think you could probably make the sauce with some milk that has been reduced but it won’t have the same richness to it. The boxed unrefrigerated gnocchi [...]
