I am really blessed that I did not have to stay in places with extreme weather. In India, I was staying in Bangalore, where the weather is pretty much steady through out the year. It’s neither too humid nor too warm. Then in US, it’s California! Although these days, due to global warming, it’s no longer pleasant throughout the year. Yet, it’s much better as compared to the extreme climate of other cities.
During this season, I like to eat light food - nothing too deep fried nor too oily. Also, I need to shed those calories which have been hiding beneath my jackets all through the winter 😉 As I was blog hopping, I came across this pasta dish from Confessions of a Bake-aholic and it looked so refreshing, light and healthy. I immediately knew that I would love it.
I gave it my own twist to adjust it with my pantry and our taste buds. I decided to use bowtie pasta instead of penne, no specific reason.. really! It took hardly 15 mins to make this dish. Since it was a lemon-flavored light pasta, I thought of baking some potato wedges in the oven. The combination was just perfect. The tangy light pasta with the mild spicy potato wedges was a perfect treat to our tummies 🙂
NOTE : Make the potato wedges before you cook the pasta and keep them warm in the oven.
