What's For Dinner?

This blog was created just for fun. It's a fun way to keep track of the successful dinners I've made. It's also a great way to share dinner ideas with the friends who usually ask me what I'm making for dinner. (Of course I do the same to them.) I am not an amazing cook, but so what? Here's what I'm having for dinner, in case you wanted to know.

Tomato Cream Alfredo with Spinach Chive Linguine and Baby Spinach Salad

Tonight we tried the Spinach Chive Linguine from Trader Joe's. It was great! I made the sauce below from allrecipes.com and added some Barilla Roasted Garlic Marinara sauce to create the tomato cream sauce. The salad was baby spinach topped with avacado, tomoato, and a balsalmic vinagrette.
