Trader Joes Find – Organic Vegetable Radiatorre Pasta
This pasta caught my eye – Organic and Vegetable. WIN-WIN! I haven’t made Radiatorre in a long time. I usually use it for a cold Pasta Salad. Might make something a little different now that its 100+ degrees with summer here.

Avocado & Poached Egg Toast
UPDATE: I’ve made this many times with various sliced fruit but I think its best with sliced Mango and Strawberries! I can make this one in my sleep (how simple is that!) and we have this in our house about once a week. You can top the toast with Avocado […]
