October 2 - Pasta with Artichoke Sauce

Highlights:
Artichoke Heart Sauce

Greg and Laurie got us an original and delicious wedding gift - a subscription to the Connaisseur's Club at igourmet which is a monthly delivery of gourmet foods. Friday night we decided to try the Artichoke Heart Sauce and pasta from our first month's delivery. We cooked up the pasta and then after draining, poured the sauce over the pasta and voila - a quick, easy, delicious meal. The sauce was outstanding - artichoke hearts blended with some oil, herbs and salt, thick and chunky ready to cling to our al dente rigatoni. This doesn't seem like it would be too hard to make with store bought artichoke hearts however we were very content to open the can and have a gourmet meal in minutes.
