It’s easy to get burned out and uninspired in the kitchen. A great way to get those creative juices flowing again are with color. There are lots of ways to add color, but naturally colored foods always taste better and are better for you. Chef Joe spent over 10 years making pasta professionally and has shared his method and recipe for a perfect vibrant green spinach dough. The pastabilities are endless, because you can tailor this recipe to use any type of freeze dried vegetable powders (or purees). The vegetables not only add color, but also nutrients and flavor! (Pro-Tip: Freeze dried powders are available at the grocery store in the health food aisle or on the internet!)
