MY SPECIAL SALAD DRESSING AND A PASTA RECIPE WITH BROCCOLI

MY BEST SALAD DRESSING IS SOON YOURS AS WELL!
You need
1 part freshly squeezed lemon juice
2 parts virgin olive oil
chopped garlic to taste
salt
freshly milled black pepper
a hint of honey
water (approx 2 tbsp per lemon)
Mix it all together and shake
Can be uses immediately. I normally make a lot of it and keep in the fridge. Remember to take it out to warm up before using! Really nice with steamed asparagus and the topped with some grated Parmesan cheese!
I use it for cold salads and warm vegetables!
A QUICK AND VERY EASY MADE PASTA
You need
1 head of Broccoli in small bouquets and chopped stem
250 g bacon, chopped
1 onion, finely chopped
5 cloves of garlic, finely chopped
300 g penne or farfalle pasta
a dash of white wine
virgin olive oil
black pepper
salt
grated Parmesan cheese
Gently fry the onion, garlic and bacon in olive oil until it is soft and golden. Add a bit of white wine and let it steam off. Season with salt and black pepper.
Cook the pasta with the broccoli (10 min). Drain. Add the onion/garlic/bacon mix to the warm pasta and broccoli then add the grated Parmesan, and if you find it necessary, a bit more olive oil, and stir. Serve immediately with some extra Parmesan on top! Yummy!
