More Artichokes

Taking advantage of that artichoke season! Now THIS was a successful Saturday dinner, thanks to Kara's request...

Shrimp and Artichoke Tagliatelle with Black Pepper and Pecorino- That's the official name of the recipe, but I'd call it Lemon and Butter Amazingness. This is basically everything you love about artichoke and shrimp. Shrimp roasted in lemon and butter with fresh artichoke hearts cooked in white wine, then tossed together with pasta and Pecorino Romano and more lemon and butter. Plenty of freshly ground black pepper to taste. Genius idea. Not something to do every night, but wow.

Served alongside a mixed greens salad picked from our garden with yellow heirloom tomatoes in a Balsamic vinaigrette topped with Parmesan

And I even made dessert- Mixed Berry White Wine Sabayon (like a nice, warm custard with fresh fruit)

Finished with French-pressed coffee.

Aahhhhh...
