Inspiration for the week ahead

​

Hey there, Reader!

​

September marks the official start of the busy season over here. The last four months of the year are always the busiest for the blog, and for our family. Between school, work, after-school activities, and holidays, there's always A LOT going on. And I know many of you understand, as it's a busy season for you, too!

​

One thing we can always count on for fast, easy, delicious dinners during this often over-scheduled time of year: pasta.

​

I personally love pasta and would eat it every single day if I could. There are so many different ways to prepare pasta, and it's one of my favorite ways to use leftovers. Got leftover taco meat? Make taco pasta! Leftover rotisserie chicken? Make Tuscan chicken pasta! So many pastabilities!

​

So this week's newsletter is full of some tasty pasta recipes to make on busy fall nights. It was really difficult choosing just a few, so be sure to check out the full pasta recipe collection on the blog for more.
