aphrodisiac pasta challenge

Here’s an idea for the ultimate Valentine Pasta Recipe. Combine a bunch of ingredients considered to be aphrodisiac, all in one dish: arugula, almonds, asparagus, avocado, basil, broccoli rabe, carrots, fennel, garlic, ginger, pinenuts. I certainly have used each of these ingredients with pasta, but never all together. It will be very, very interesting to see what happens!

Valentine Pasta Dish

Looking through my archives of recipes, I did notice that I made a pasta dish using arugula, basil, broccoli rabe, pinenuts, roasted corn and cherry tomatoes with our new Papparadelle Pasta. It doesn’t incorporate all of the aphrodisiacs, but it’s a good start.
