I’m headed out of town again for a couple of days this week, so I’m going to make the Whole Wheat Penne Ricotta Bake this weekend so that my husband can just re-heat it. That is one of the few things I make (versus my husband), and even though he does the majority of the cooking, I know that if there isn’t anything easy in the fridge while I’m gone it’s going to end up being take out. The rest of the week is all easy stuff, and I’m excited to try the Pineapple Shrimp (Cheater) Ceviche. (And yes, I realize I have a serious issue with spelling “Prosciutto”.)
WHOLE WHEAT PENNE, CHICKEN, MUSHROOM, SPINACH, RICOTTA BAKE – Recipe here.

PROSCIUTTO, ARUGULA PIZZA – Start with a plain thin pizza crust, we use the ones in the freezer section of Trader Joe’s. Drizzle olive oil over it, cover with shredded mozzarella and sliced prosciutto. Bake according to package directions. Meanwhile, toss the arugula with some fresh squeezed lemon, olive oil, salt and pepper. When the pizza’s done, pile the arugula salad on top and finish with some shaved Parmesan and a squeeze of lemon.
