We do love pasta and just recently tried one made with Kamut Khorasan Wheat (an ancient grain) and it is not only super healthy and nutritious, but I like how it can be tolerated by some with gluten intolerance. The real taste testers of our house (our kids) even like it lol! I would love to try this - thank you for sharing :) Oh funny – we just tried an ancient grain wheat too!

I really don't like throwing away food (it's just me and dh) so I really enjoy experimenting with leftover ingredients to create something new and delicious. Great looking dish, picture and I love your blog! I love the idea of mini meatballs also.

I like how you've added the porcinis -- they lend such great flavor to sauces. That plate of pasta and minimeatballs looks absolutely delicious!

I'd love to know how you cook DeBoles because it's never turned out well for me - then again I use gluten free but if I recall correctly it was the corn pasta I couldn't get right. I'm learning the huge difference in cooking grassfed meats - the meat quality is so much better but you can't treat it the same as store bought because the make-up is not the same. Goes to show you - you are what you eat. I agree with everyone else…beautiful picture.

Love it Jenn ♥. Too bad that now I can only have 100 grs of pasta for lunch (diet rules), but if I could I would have two plates of your macarrones (that's how we call them here).
