My Simple and Quick Pasta Recipe<\/h1>\n

 <\/p>\n

A Stinging Nettle Recipe for Homemade Pasta<\/h2>\n

 <\/p>\n


<\/span><\/p>\n

This is my go to recipe for pasta.<\/span><\/p>\n

Yes,  you get flour on the counter.  Maybe a dusting of it on the floor, too.  <\/span><\/p>\n


<\/span><\/p>\n

                                                         \"Chaya<\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

You can, however, have a gourmet meal with little more than egg, water, and flour, and the investment of perhaps 15 minutes.  <\/span><\/p>\n


<\/span><\/p>\n

                                                                           \"Children<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

 To children, it is like mom sanctioned play-dough–and no one yells at you for eating it!  For dad, it is a comfort food that provides the smell of garlic throughout the house when he arrives home hungry and ready for family time. <\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

                                                                         \"adding<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

 For mom, you know that you are feeding your family the freshest (and most economical) meal of the week.  You can even sneak in those otherwise-slimy green vegetables the kids will not eat.  This time, I added Stinging Nettle for a serious boost of nutrition.  Stay tuned for the next blog on cooking with Stinging Nettle<\/a>! <\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

                                                      \"Adding <\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

 In our house, Mom, Dad, and the children all participate in making batches of homemade pasta.<\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

                                                                       \"Using<\/p>\n

                                                                       \"homemade<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

 Sometimes we put it into the dehydrator <\/a>for a quick meal another day…but we must always plan to cook a batch right away for that instant gratification.  I have not always found a lot of ways to enjoyably eat Stinging Nettle, but this is one Stinging Nettle recipe that is kid approved.
