![]() I first encountered aglio olio pasta at the italian restaurant i worked at as a server right out of college. Yup…garlic + olive oil + noodle piles + cheese mountains. in aglio olio’s case, a good amount of freshly grated garlic gets simmered away in a nice olive oil before getting tossed into a pile of warm noodles & mountains of freshly grated cheese. in true italian fashion, it calls for the most humble ingredients (aglio = garlic, olio = oil), when combined they combine to amount to something that is greater than any of the individual components. (umm…is that just as suspenseful as a cliffhanger ending to an episode of the bachelorette, or what?!) in the meantime, though, to celebrate summer’s arrival, i have for you today my favorite summery dish: aglio olio zoodles with summer vegetables and shrimp.įirst things first, do not (i repeat DO NOT) let the fancy schmancy name of this dish intimidate you.Īglio olio (pronounced, “ahh-leo oh-leo”) is a quintessentially italian classic pasta dish. all of the busy joy & serious hustle is culminating into a very exciting announcement that i can’t wait to share with you on thursday. ![]() lots of good stuff going on, right?!Īt the same time, to be completely honest with you, springtime this year felt like a flat out sprint, in more ways than one. i mean, we went to hawaii, my bestie got married, one of chris’ best buds got married too, our puppy grew & grew & grew some more into a young little dog (i now call him my 75-pound man child dog…make it stop!), i got to spend time with my niece & nephew, & the work i’ve been doing for the blog has given me such a sense of purpose & fulfillment. It’s not that i don’t love a crazy schedule every now & then. our days in minnesota are longer & sunnier, the weather is getting better & better, & after what was a seriously crazy spring, our calendar is slowing down a little. I honestly could not be happier about summer’s arrival this year. Guys! it’s officially summer! happy summer solstice 2017!!! *raises both hands & does a happy dance*
