Tomato Basil Shells with Turkey Meatballs

I think I like the look of this clean recipe mainly because of its use of perlina mozzarella. These will add a creaminess to the sauce once they soften from the heat of the sauce...and the dish is visually very pretty.








Original recipe isn't the Cleanest, so I've tidied it up a bit.

Tomato Basil Shells with Turkey Meatballs 

  • 1/2 lb shell-shaped organic whole wheat pasta
  • Homemade tomato sauce or if you allow yourself, 1 14.5-oz can Muir Glen Diced Tomatoes with Basil and Garlic ( note Muir Glen is an organic sauce, but it does have some "extra" ingredients. )
  • 1/2 cup fresh basil, chopped
  • 1/2 cup Perline organic mozzarella (pearl size) - Note: If you can't find perline, use regular organic block mozzarella cut into small pieces. 
  • 12 precooked turkey meatballs, heated and halved - Note: Not the kind in the frozen food section. Those are incredibly unclean. Please make your own!
  • sea salt and ground pepper
  • crushed red pepper

1. Cook pasta according to directions on package
2. While the shell pasta is cooking, stir together the tomato sauce, basil,  meatballs, salt, pepper and a sprinkle of crushed red pepper.
3. Just before serving over pasta, add mozzarella to the sauce so they are still round shaped when served. 

Thanks, Tablespoon.com

What is Pterygium and Pinguecula ?

[Extracted from the webpage of www.healthscout.com] A pterygium is a fleshy growth that invades the cornea (the clear front window of the eye). It is an abnormal process in which the conjunctiva (a membrane that covers the white of the eye) grows into the cornea. A pinguecula is a yellowish patch or bump on the white of the eye, most often on the side closest to the nose. It is not a tumor but an alteration of normal tissue resulting in a deposit of protein and fat. Unlike a pterygium, a pinguecula does not actually grow onto the cornea. A pinguecula may also be a response to chronic eye irritation or sunlight. Although pterygium and pinguecula sound like mysterious, arcane diseases, they are actually quite common, usually benign eye conditions. These lesions appear as a whitish-yellowish bump or fleshy "growth" on the exposed conjunctiva. If the bump appears only on the white part of the eye, it is called a pinguecula. If it appears to "grow" onto t...

Homemade Almond Milk ( Fast and Easy )

Making homemade almond milk is truly fast and easy. In fact, I made my very first batch of this creamy treat last week for the first time. It involved using only two ingredients: almonds and water, and had only four simple steps: soak, blend, strain, drink. After soaking, the entire process took me only 10-15 minutes. It was fun and tasted amazing! I'm sold on only making my own because store bought almond milk is stored in containers that are lined with plastic and plastic leaches estrogens into the food. And many brands add chemicals. My homemade drink tastes just as good if not better and I store it in glass. I've stopped buying plastic water bottles last year, but I didn't realize that cans and cardboard containers are lined with plastic as well. The convenience of buying containers of almond milk ( along with organic veg soup broth, canned beans, coconut milk) is exposing me to a continuous flow of estrogens which is linked to not only breast cancer but weight gain!...
