Awesome Rotini Carbonara and Vegan Blog Hop Results

Awe inspiring!

I just recently got a membership to Costco. I know, right! I'll bet you're wondering why I didn't already have one.  When I went the other day to look around, I wondered what took me so long as well.  Natalie and I went at lunch time and they had sample's galore.  By the time we were through we were pretty full of samples.  You need to be careful though, some people use their carts as weapons to get to said samples.  I found myself having to use my cart as a shield against some crazy hungry people. People need to simmer down now!  One of the sample's Natalie tried was Bobak's Sundried Tomato Italian Sausage links.  It was love at first bite!  I picked up a package with a few ideas in mind. It all started with the simple idea of sausage, diced tomatoes, rotini and basil but it turned into that and so much more!

Awesome Rotini Carbonara - Yes, this dish inspired awe! If you don't believe me, try it for yourself! 

Yields 4 very hungry people and some very good leftover lunch

1 24 oz. box of rotini prepared according to directions
2 Tbsp. olive oil
1 Tbsp. minced garlic

3 links of Bobaks Sundried Tomato sausage sliced into 1/4-inch pieces
1 14.5 oz. can of organic diced tomatoes - drained
1 cup Feta cheese

1 bunch of basil

Prepare pasta according to directions. 

For the Sauce In a small bowl add 1 cup of Feta and 2 eggs and whip together. 

For the Sausage, etc

Pour 2 Tbsp. olive oil into skillet on medium heat.  Add sausage pieces and cook until warmed through; about 7 minutes.  Add 1 Tbsp. garlic and stir for about 1 minute.  Add the diced tomatoes and the pasta and stir to combine. Turn heat to low and add the sauce and stir together for about 5 minutes to warm through but being careful to not allow the eggs to scramble.

Do you shop at Costco?  Are you a cart wielding sample mongler?

The Vegan Wednesday Blog Hop was a complete and total success!  Can you see the sarcasm oozing from those words?  I had a lot of fun saying "Vegan Vednesday" all day on Wednesday.  I also had a ton of fun making the picture button.
