Avocado Caesar Dressing

I know a gal who is so obsessed with avocados that she has written a cookbook devoted to just avocados!  She is Gaby Dalkin, author of "What's Gaby Cooking" and she just happens to be my goddaughter.  "Absolutely Avocados" will show you many new and fun ways to use avocados.  Her love of avocados really comes through in this book.  It has certainly given me a new appreciation of what you can do with an avocado.

Drunken Pasta

 

Here's a good reason to open a bottle of red wine - Drunken Pasta.  After slightly cooking your pasta in water, you finish cooking it in red wine.  It comes out a nice red color and very flavorful.   The recipe is easy and doesn't require a long list of ingredients. This is definitely a great little pantry dish.

What kind of red wine to use?  Something dry, fruity and good enough to drink - a Chianti or a Zinfandel works great.
