"Even in the lighter, warmer months of the year, I am always looking for my kitchen to be a source of comfort food," said chef Alex Guarnaschelli. "I love this dish for filling that important place." This Springtime Pasta Bake is a lightened up, warm-weather take on our favorite comfort food: pasta! It gives lasagna vibes, while packing in some veggies like zucchini and asparagus. Up the ante by serving it with an easy spinach salad on the side. To make, drizzle extra virgin olive oil and freshly squeezed lemon over baby spinach. Sprinkle with parmesan and toss to serve. |

Just a handful of pecans a day can reduce risk of heart disease and diabetes |
Although pecans may not be the first nut you reach for at the store, their nutrition profile and soft buttery texture make them incredibly enticing. They are loaded with nutrients like antioxidants, fiber, protein, unsaturated fat, phytonutrients (plant compounds) and minerals. As a matter of fact, they contain the most fiber per serving of any tree nut. These nutrients make pecans a winner for weight management and reducing your risk of diabetes, heart disease and high cholesterol. And though you've probably added pecans to pies or praline, they have many more uses, like a topper for salads or casseroles or a nutty addition to pilafs. Get 8 healthy pecan recipes — from sweet desserts to savory mains. |
