Easy Homemade Spaghetti Marinara Sauce

Easy Homemade Spaghetti Marinara Sauce

Happy Sunday, pretty Ladies,

Today’s “In the Kitchen with D’Arcy,” I am bringing you a crowd favorite. My easy homemade spaghetti marinara sauce is yummy but great for Bolognese lasagna; add meatballs, which I use for my Homemade Meatball sandwiches. You can easily substitute canned tomatoes versus garden fresh. 

With our garden harvest, I can make several jars of my sauce every summer. I’ll share that process in another blog post. 

Easy Homemade Spaghetti Marinara Sauce

Spaghetti Sauce

1 28oz can crushed tomatoes or  (4-6 fresh tomatoes blended) 

1 28oz can of diced tomatoes or (4 fresh tomatoes diced) 

2 6oz cans Tomato Paste (garlic basil flavored)

A large handful (or more if you like) Fresh basil ribbon chopped 

Two bay leaves 

Two tablespoons kitchen bouquet (import for rich flavor and color)

One tablespoon sugar

1-2 tablespoons balsamic vinegar 

3-4 tablespoons jar Parmesan cheese sprinkles 

1/2 cup Olive oil 

One med onion chopped 

3/6 cloves crushed garlic 

2 Tablespoons Italian herbs 

1 Tablespoon Oregano 

1 Tablespoons dried Basil

A Tablespoon of Dried onion

One teaspoon garlic salt

Salt to taste

Pepper to taste

Directions:

Brown onion in olive oil, and add crushed garlic until golden brown. ADD tomatoes, stir, and add paste stir. Add in all other ingredients, mixing them as you do so. 

Let this sauce simmer on low all day on the stovetop, stirring occasionally, or simmer down in the crock pot.  The longer the sauce simmers, the better. Of course, you could make and serve it for dinner, but this is a proper “Sunday Sauce” your family will enjoy for Sunday dinner.

Caprese bowtie pasta salad with chicken

 

Happy Sunday, pretty Ladies,

Today’s “in the Kitchen with D’Arcy,” I am bringing you a crowd favorite. This is a dish I take to parties or make for family BBQs. It’s easy to make. You can whip it up in 30 min. Taste great hot or cold and is fantastic the next day to make it ahead.  

I love the flavor of Caprese, Tomatoes, mozzarella, and fresh basil. It makes for a great pasta dish and adds grilled chicken for protein. 

 

Caprese bowtie pasta salad with chicken

Caprese bowtie pasta salad with chicken big enough for a crowd

2 boxes (1lbs box) of Barilla mini farfalle (cook as directed) 

8 tomatoes chopped 

4 chicken breasts grilled and chopped

2 cups chopped white onions

1 cup chopped fresh basil (I would do 2 cups next time)

2 cupped shredded mozzarella cheese

1 bottle of Newsman’s family recipe Italian dressing 

1/2 cup balsamic Vineger 

1/2 cup olive oil 

2 tablespoons sea salt

1/2 tablespoon black pepper

1/2 tablespoon garlic powder

Caprese bowtie pasta salad with chicken
Caprese bowtie pasta salad with chicken
Caprese bowtie pasta salad with chicken

Directions:

First, I cook the pasta as directed on the box, Then I marinate the chicken breast in olive oil, salt, pepper, and garlic, and my hubby grills it on the BBQ. (If planning, I always add extra chicken to the grill, then you’ll have grilled chicken later in the week.)  As the pasta is boiling, I cut the tomatoes and onions, set them aside, and mix the dressing with the Newmans, Balsamic vinegar, sea salt, pepper, and garlic powder. When mixed up, add it to the tomatoes and onions, stir, and set aside.

Cut chicken into cubes, and set aside. Strain pasta, add olive oil to the pasta, and stir to keep it from sticking. In a large bowl ( I use an extra large wooden serving bowl), add 1/3 of the pasta, 1/3 of the tomato and onion mixture, and stir. Add chicken, stir, then repeat, stir, and repeat until all the pasta and tomato mixture is added and stir.

This process makes sure everything is thoroughly mixed. Then mix in cheese and stir. Add fresh basil and stir. I like to top it with more cheese and fresh basil. Serve warm or cold.

Chicken Bolognese and Burrata Cheese Pasta Recipe

Chicken Bolognese and Burrata Cheese Pasta Recipe

Hello pretty ladies, 

I hope you had a great week and a fun kick-off to summer. I’ve been trying to get caught up from my last two back-to-back trips, and I am excited to continue to share some of the fun travel adventures and outfit inspirations with you. I’ll do future blog posts with recaps and vacation details soon. I’ve shared some fun Reels, outfits, and stories on Instagram. 

Last week I shared in stories my Chicken Bolognese with Burrata cheese Pasta Recipe in stories and had so many of you want it in writing versus a show and tell in stories. It’s one of my hubby’s favorite pasta dishes and is so good and easy to make. You could whip it up in under 30 minutes, but the longer it simmers, the better it tastes. I’d love for you to let me know in the comments if you make this recipe. 

Chicken Bolognese and Burrata Cheese Pasta Recipe

Chicken Bolognese Recipe

1 pound ground chicken

One onion white or yellow chopped

1 28oz Cento crushed tomatoes

1 14.5oz can diced tomatoes

EVOO to coat the pan

Two tablespoons of Italian seasoning

One teaspoon of Johnny’s garlic season

1 to two tablespoons of fresh garlic 

1/2 cup chopped fresh basil

One tablespoon of kitchen bouquet browning seasoning

One tablespoon of dried chopped onion

One bay leaves 

One teaspoon of dried basil 

One teaspoon of garlic salt

One container of Burrata Cheese

Heat a large saucepan, add olive oil, and ground chicken. Chop up the ground chicken; I love this chopper. Once golden brown, add a kitchen bouquet and stir until all chicken is coated. Add Italian seasoning, chopped onions, brown, chopped/crushed garlic, and more EVOO if needed. Once browned, add tomato, stir, and then add all the other ingredients except burrata cheese. Let simmer on low and cover. Stir every so often, the longer you let simmer, the more favor.

Serve over any pasta you love. I like this over Rigatoni (when pasta is ready), add cheese to the sauce (break up cheese), and stir into sauce. 

After the pasta is drained, add pasta a little at a time while stirring into the sauce.

Serve with a green salad and my delicious homemade garlic bread Recipe here.

 

 

Live life stylishly and look good at any age.

6 Books I Am Reading This Summer

6 Books I Am Reading This Summer

Hello pretty ladies,

How’s your week going? Mine has been a little crazy with getting back from one trip and heading out on another tomorrow. I also had a health scare, but God is good, and it’s not as severe. I still have some big decisions to make, but it is not life-threatening, which I am so grateful for. I’ll share more in the upcoming weeks. But for now, I am feeling very blessed and thankful. 

Those of you who read my blog or have followed me on social for a while know I love to read and share a seasonal book list of what I’ll be reading that season. Today, I can finally share my summer reading list as all the books have arrived. (The Summer of Songbirds by Kristy Woodson Harvey) is hot off the press on June 16th.

I hope you’ll join me in reading a few of my picks or maybe read all of them with me. I will be sharing stories about them on Instagram, and as I finish each book, I’ll have a little live chat on Instagram. So, if you join me, tune in for more engagement and conversation. In case you missed it last week, I announced the first book I am reading is On Gin Lane.

Sunday Dinner Recipe Grilled Lemon Chicken

Sunday Dinner Recipe Grilled Lemon Chicken

Hello pretty ladies,

Happy Memorial weekend, I hope the weather is beautiful where you live, and you’re doing something fun to celebrate the Holiday weekend.

Today’s “in the kitchen with D’Arcy” Sunday recipe share, I am sharing my easy Grilled Lemon pepper & garlic chicken with you. Perfect for kicking off BBQ season this Memorial Weekend ❤️🤍💙🇺🇸 You can view my reel here.

Sunday Dinner Recipe Grilled Lemon Chicken

—Easy Sunday Dinner—

Grilled Lemon pepper & garlic chicken Recipe:

Chicken breast ( I like thinly sliced)

1/3 cup olive oil 

Juice of 2 lemons & 1 Lime

One lemon sliced

One tablespoon of Lemon pepper season

1/2 teaspoon Black garlic seasoning

Lemon pepper citron seasoning (I do about 3 -4 Shakes)

1/2 teaspoon Garlic powder seasoning

In a 9×12 dish, coat the chicken with olive oil, making sure to coat both sides. I also like like to poke the chicken with a fork to help marinate soak into the chicken. Next, add the juice of the lemons and lime, again making sure to coat both sides of the chicken. Then add all of the seasonings making sure to coat both sides. Cover with plastic or foil, place in the fridge until ready to grill. I like to prep in the morning to allow time to marinate all day. Grill on medium heat. If thin, grill for about 13-15 minutes. If thick, chicken about 9/10 minutes a side.

What I DIDN’T do to prepare for…Midlife🌸💕 I Didn’t What I DIDN’T do to prepare for…Midlife🌸💕
I Didn’t Worry about it…

Really, why worry about aging… instead YOU can prepare for it!

Knowledge is power, and Midlife now is completely different than how our mothers and grandmothers dealt with it. 

We have more information, conversation, products and help on the topic than generations before.

What you can do to Prepare for Menopause/aging….

-Eat well, 

-Exercise 

-Get outside and get real vitamin D 

- Drink lots of water

-Take supplements that will help the processes

- Ask questions

-Go to a Hormonal Doctor

-Share what works for you with Friends💕

- Get more Protein and Fiber

- Get sleep (it’s hard but figure out what works for you)

💕These are just a few things that can help! (I am not a Doctor) just sharing things I have found that really make a difference.

I am all about A Granny Summer… This COCO has bee I am all about A Granny Summer…

This COCO has been gardening what feels like my whole life, my mom loved gardening and her English gardens were beautiful, her tomatoes and herbs always yummy;) she taught me what each flower & veggies types were and how to grow & care for them etc. 

She would teach our boys “how to smell”  not really, but she would walk them around had have them smell each flower and how they smelt differently.. they’re puffing noses were so cute❤️

Gardening has always been apart of my life , every home, it was fun to rebuild and create… Try new things, depending on the land etc. it’s hard work, yet relaxing and so rewarding…. 

Over the years, I taught myself how to seed my flowers and veggies, what I could dry and harvest, how to can, what I liked to bake with, and  what freezes well. 

I would teach our boys, have them help pick apples and berries, take them to garden shops and have them pick favorites and let them plant, they would dig and help pull weeds… 

Gardening isn’t just for Grannies… it’s a hobby or career you can pick up at any age, but I have to say,  I can’t wait to take our NEW Grandson out to the gardens and learn, dig and plant…. He’s only 6 months and we already know he loves nature, and he loves plants.. he’s at peace in nature and loves to touch all the different plants and trees… he  loves the leaves slightly blowing in the breeze…. He’ll just stare, It’s so cute! 

With age, I do enjoy it more, as I enjoy the slower moments and the time gardening takes…

How about you? How do you feel about gardening?🌱🪴🌻🫛🪏🏡🧑‍🌾🫜⛲️
