Searching for an Indiana Jones recipe on your Indy occasion? Make my simple Snake Pit Pasta! I served this simple dish as the principle course at Disney Dinners: Indiana Jones since snakes are so prevalent within the sequence.
“Snakes…why’d it must be snakes?” – Indiana Jones
You would after all used retailer purchased pesto in a pinch however my home made pesto is completely out of this world. You’ll by no means wish to purchase pesto once more! I develop an abundance of basil in my backyard each summer time and freeze jars and jars of pesto. This dish was so quick and simple for me as a result of I actually thawed a jar of pesto the evening earlier than this occasion and tossed the pesto with bucatini. Best Disney Dinner recipe ever!
I needed a shock within the snake pit and that shock is a creamy burrata ball beneath the bucatini snakes. Scrumptious! When you’re by no means had burrata earlier than, you’re in for a deal with. It’s insanely creamy and mixes in so fantastically with the pasta.
I topped every serving with pine nut “rocks.” Scrumptious and thematic. The proper recipe for an Indiana Jones film evening!
