Satisfying Weeknight Pasta

This recipe is a continuation of my series of easy weeknight, fast yet good food. It's easy to take this base recipe and jazz it up to create something great. But as it stands its good food fast and easy as is. There are many options to up the flavor. For instance add in dried Italian herbs simmer phase. Or add fresh chopped garlic about a minute before deglazing. This is a great base to expand on.

Classic Balsamic Vinaigrette

This vinaigrette is a timeless classic for good reason. It balances the sharp, tangy balsamic with the smoother, mellow olive oil. Perfect salads, caprese or any other. Mix it with tomatoes, feta, strawberries, or any green. It's simple to make, just don't use cheap ingredients. You'll have a major challenge to find a time I don't have some in my refrigerator.
