Taste Test: Domino's Bread Bowl Pastas
The world of fast food is certainly quick paced, so the second Domino's begun advertising five flavors of pasta housed in a bread bowl, it seemed everybody was buzzing about it. When Party and I first got word of these monsters, we were simultaneously shocked (who came up with the concept?), appalled, and eager to try them. Yesterday turned out to be the Domino's day of reckoning — to find out how the bowls stood up to their shock value, read more
Fast & Easy Dinner: Chicken and Lemon-Broccoli Alfredo
When a recipe calls for a canned sauce make the sauce your own by adding fresh herbs, savory spices, or grated cheese.
In this dish a refrigerated container of light Alfredo sauce is jazzed up with lemon zest and several grinds of black pepper. Served over seared chicken breasts and sautéed vegetables, it makes for a delicious and crowd pleasing meal.
Not Your Regular Nachos: Italian Nachos
Let me just say that taking a gorgeous, appetizing picture of nachos is hard. The image certainly does not do these amazingly delicious Italian nachos justice. They were so good that I ate an insane amount all by myself.
Fast & Easy Dinner: Low-Fat Fettuccine Alfredo
I love everything about creamy, decadent pasta sauces. However, I know they're incredibly unhealthy. That's why I enjoy making lighter versions like this low-fat fettuccine Alfredo.
Fast & Easy DInner: Chicken Alfredo Pesto Pasta
Although I love both Alfredo and pesto sauce, I had never thought of combining the two! If you are stuck in a boring chicken and pasta rut, try this recipe for a pasta flavor fusion. Start with a quick and simple Alfredo sauce and mix in several tablespoons of pesto to create a dish that is full of depth.

Shirtless Footballers Celebrate the Start of Summer
I know Summer has started when the football season ends and Premier League players go on holiday, and this year Miami is the destination of choice. Chelsea's Michael Ballack, Spurs' Aaron Lennon, and Djibril Cissé have all been enjoying the sun, sea and sand of the beaches in Florida over the last week. We were treated to a bevy of shirtless footballers last Summer too, and I'm looking forward to plenty more shirtless shots this year, with Ashley Cole on holiday with Cheryl and David Beckham in France too.
Taste Test: Pizza Hut's Tuscani Pastas
Earlier this year, Pizza Hut played a trick on the country by claiming it had changed its name to Pasta Hut. Although the name change turned out to be an advertising prank, the pizza delivery chain did roll out a new line of Tuscani Pastas ($12.99). After trying out Domino's new line of subs, I decided that to be fair, I'd give Pizza Hut's pastas a try, too.
