LINGUINE WITH SPINACH-BASIL PESTO
Steps:
- Bring a large pot of generously salted water to a rapid boil.
- Divide the Fresh Pasta dough in half, working with one half at a time and keeping the other piece wrapped. Set up a pasta roller attachment on a stand mixer (or secure a hand roller to the side of your work surface). Lightly flour your work surface and roll out the dough until it is thin enough to pass through the pasta roller. Set your pasta roller to the widest setting. Turn on the pasta roller and pass the dough through once. Fold the rolled-out piece of dough over itself, and then pass through the roller again. If the edges begin to fray or the dough gets sticky or damp, lightly dust both sides with flour. Repeat six or seven more times, until the dough is smooth.
- Adjust the roller to the second widest setting, dust both sides of the dough with flour, and pass it through twice (without folding). Repeat, adjusting to a thinner setting each time and passing through twice, until the dough is thin but not so much that it is translucent.
- Dust a work surface with some semolina flour to keep the dough from sticking. Trim the dough into 10- to 12-inch long sheets, stacking them with semolina between each sheet. Fold the stack of dough sheet in half, and then in half again. Use a sharp knife to slice the dough along the short side of the stack into 1/4-inch thick slices. Unroll the noodles and toss with semolina flour to prevent sticking. Repeat the rolling and cutting process with the remaining dough.
- Drop the pasta into the boiling water and stir immediately. Leave the pasta to cook, stirring occasionally, for 2 minutes. Add the green beans cook 1 1/2 minutes more. Lift the pasta and green beans from the water with tongs or a spider and place in a heatproof bowl along with about 1/4 cup pasta water. Pour about 3/4 cup pesto over the pasta and beans and toss well, adding more pesto if necessary. Top with more grated cheese.
- Mound the flour in the center of a clean countertop or cutting board. Make a well in the center of the flour 3 to 4 inches wide.
- Crack the eggs into the well and add a pinch of salt. Using a fork, break the yolks and begin to beat the eggs as you would if making scrambled eggs.
- Continue stirring the eggs with a fork in large circles, slowly incorporating the flour. When the eggs form a thick mass and become difficult to stir, about 3 minutes, fold the loose flour from the edges into the pile with a bench scraper and knead until a smooth dough forms. Discard any excess flour.
- Shape the dough into a flat disk, wrap tightly with plastic wrap and set aside to rest for 20 minutes before rolling. If waiting more than 1 hour, refrigerate or freeze the dough. The dough will keep refrigerated for up to 24 hours.
- Combine the basil, spinach, garlic and a pinch of salt in a food processor or blender and pulse until finely chopped. With the machine running, stream in the oil through the opening. Add the cheese and process until almost smooth. (Add more oil if needed to create a smooth, spoonable consistency.) Taste and season with salt and pepper; transfer to a bowl.

PASTA WITH SPINACH, BEANS AND PANCETTA
This is wonderful pasta with tons of flavor. It is incorporates a lot of different flavors but is well worth the little bit of extra time to make it. The white beans make for a very hearty creamy flavor along with the pancetta, and the spinach makes for a great light addition to the pasta. I hope you give this a try.

Steps:
- Bean sauce -- In a large saute pan, add 1 tablespoon of the olive oil and saute the pancetta until lightly brown. Then add the onion, red pepper flakes and continue cooking until the onion is slightly soft and translucent. Then add the beans, salt and pepper, wine, chicken broth, and parsley. Simmer 10-15 minutes on low. Mash up the beans slightly with a fork. The beans will naturally thicken the sauce.
- Pasta -- While the beans cook, start cooking your pasta according to directions.
- Spinach -- Now . while the beans simmer and the pasta cook, lets make the spinach. In a large skillet heat the 2 tablespoons olive oil and butter. Add the garlic and cook just a minute until lightly browned, then add the tomatoes and cook 3-4 minutes until they start to break down. Next, add the spinach and cook until lightly wilted just a couple of minutes, not too long. Add additional salt and pepper and cook until spinach is slightly wilted.
- Combine -- Drain the pasta, (reserve a little of the water) and toss with the bean mixture, parmesan cheese, and the spinach mixture. Add a little of the pasta water if you would like a little more sauce. I also like to drizzle just a bit of good olive oil the top. ENJOY!
- Some good toasted baguettes are perfect with this. Just topped with a little olive oil is all.

Steps:
- Cook pasta in boing water until al dente.
- Drain and set aside.
- Meanwhile prepare sauce.
- Wash spinach and remove stems (the worst part of doing this recipe. I've tried using frozen instead but it isn't as good).
- In a large saucepan(or in the microwave), cook the spinach in water until wilted, approximately 4 minutes.
- Drain, squeeze out moister, and chop finely.
- Add garlic to spinach.
- Set aside.
- [I always use a couple of cloves.].
- Heat oil in a large skillet (I use a wok).
- If you use DeCecco fetuccine, which takes about 6-7 minutes to cook, you can put the pasta in the water immediately before starting the nuts.
- The pasta and the spinach end up being done at about the same time.
- Add the nuts and saute until light brown.
- Reduce heat, add spinach mixture and cook 3 minutes.
- Add the pasta and pepper to the spinach mixture, tossing.
- Add the cheese, toss and serve.
- Recipe can be dressed up with the addition of sauteed chicken, scallops, and/or shrimp.
