Presto Pasta and Giada's Kitchen

I can't believe that tomorrow is the last Presto Pasta Night for 2008! It's true - C of Foodie Tots is hosting and I can't wait to see what everyone decides to share for the holidays. After all, we're going to need a bunch to keep us pastaholics happy until January.

And fortunately for me, I received an early gift of Giada's Kitchen: New Italian Favorites so how could I not make a pasta dish from it (she's got tons!)

Pasta with Shrimp, Arugula & Lemon Oil

This one is perfect for the holidays...in fact, it will make any night a holiday. I always have shrimps in my freezer and you can use whatever greens happen to be in the fridge. This time I followed Giada and used baby arugula. Fantastic!

So what pasta dish are you going to be sharing with Presto Pasta Nights this week? Don't forget to send your entry to foodietots (at) gmail (dot) com and a cc to me Ruth AT 4everykitchen DOT com

Have a wonderful holiday season and I look forward to many great Presto Pasta dishes from all of you in 2009!
