Sorrel and sausage spaghetti (Lady and the Tramp style)

02.13.2015 by georgie // 2 Comments

Before I start rabbiting on, I just want to start by saying that I love this recipe. LOVE it. It’s so delicious and so easy! (I pretty much ate that entire platter all on my own. I’ll obviously make it again later for Pete…)

So, the reason for this post. Well, yes, you guessed it, it’s for Valentines day. I’m not a big V-day lover I have to say, I like the sentiment, telling people you love them, but do I need a set date to do that? Unfortunately it just feels like another way to get us to spend money. Boo. But we’re not total cynics, Pete and I. We’ll always make each other something, usually a card and a meal. Ok, cooking is something we do almost everyday anyway, but we do try make it a bit more special and imaginative. And this year I have been inspired by that classic Disney love story ‘Lady and the Tramp’. I’m making a platter of meatball spaghetti for 2. Whats more romantic than sharing a plate of food?! (Unless you’re one of those people that doesn’t like sharing food? In that case feel free to plate it up on separate plates of course).

However instead of going classic Italiano meatballs with tomato sauce, I thought I’d try something a little different, and boy I’m glad I did. I found a big ol’ bunch of sorrel today at the market and decided to play with making a sorrel pesto. Read more…
