Jezebel's Favorite Pasta

"This is my take on my all-time favorite restaurant meal, Evelyn's Favorite Pasta, from the Cheesecake Factory. It's a simple combination of simple ingredients, but so satisfying. Please, adjust to your heart's content! This dish is amazingly open to interpretation based on your own personal taste. :)"

  1. This was a delicious way to get our 5-a-day of veggies today! The preparation was quick and easy - chopping, boiling and roasting were all complete withing 45 minutes so it made a great weeknight meal. I used canned quartered artichoke hearts (drained) and was amazed by the flavor they acquired through roasting. I also agree with your comment about interpretation. Other veggies such as zucchini and mushrooms would lend themselves to this dish - whatever was ripe in the garden or on special in the produce section. Great stuff SweetJezebel - thanks!

  3. This is my favorite menu item at The Cheesecake Factory. I came home and decided to try to recreate the recipe, but found your version and decided to give it try. I did make some changes as per what I wrote down for ingredients while at The Cheesecake Factory: I added some yellow bell pepper in addition to the red, I aded some chopped fresh tomatoes in addition to the sun-dried, I added about 2 tablespoons of butter to the finished pasta and also added basil pesto to the pasta. Thank you for posting this recipe and giving me a platform to interpret! Absolutely delicious!
     
  4. Wasn't sure how this would turn out without any "sauce" to it, but it was surprisingly good. Whole family liked it!
     
  5. A knock-off of The Cheesecake Factory's "Evelyn's Favorite Pasta"... I loved it! Thanks for posting!
