Chef's Block

I have hit a culinary wall. I have a well stocked kitchen, plenty of fresh produce, and I can't make a basic recipe.

What can I make with chicken sausage, fresh veggies, whole wheat pasta and pesto? Other than the obvious.

It sounds like a Chopped challenge, Honny. LOL.

What sort of pasta? Bitsy things like macaroni or sheets like lasagna?

Whole wheat rigatoni and whole wheat penne.

@HonnyBrown if you go to allrecipes dot com they have a recipe search where you plug in what you have, what type of meal you would like to prepare and it should bring up a couple of ideas.

Thanks mtc!

I went to my favorite websites (including allrecipes) for recipes. I'm not finding the simplicity that I'm looking for.

I made a dish from my head a few years ago. It was pasta, sausage, fresh veggies, pesto, and something else. It was a cold salad and I can't think of what that something else was.
