One Pot Pasta with Burrata
Any dish that only takes one pot is basically genius in my book. This pasta is one of the best. You basically just throw everything together into the same pot and boil. The pasta’s starch creates a creamy sauce which gets amped up from the burrata mixed in at the end.
Flaming Pepper Steak with Brandy Cream Sauce
This is one of those recipes that could actually make a vegetarian eat meat again. First of all the filet is coated in pepper, cooked in butter, then set on fire thanks to the brandy, add the cream and you’ve got a fancy dish in next to no time that tastes amazing!
Green Goddess Grilled Cheese
