The Celebrity Pasta Lovers' Cookbook
The Celebrity Pasta Lovers’ Cookbook is a partnership between celebrity chef Mario Batali and Barilla pasta designed to get people excited about sharing meals with the family again.
The cookbook is available for download for free from ShareTheTable.com until October 15th. Almost every pasta dish is vegetarian and most can easily be made vegan by leaving off the cheese.
Upon visiting the site, when visitors click on the icon that says they believe in meaningful meals, $1 will be donated to Meals On Wheels Association of America, for up to $150,000.
Meals on Wheels is one of the largest community based senior nutrition programs in the U.S. that provides meals to seniors in need through home delivery, delivery to senior centers or both. According to its website, the organization provides approximately 1 million meals a day through these programs.
On common theme in all the recipes is obviously Barilla pasta, but the varieties of pasta used in each dish will never leave the chef at your home bored. Julianne Moore‘s Vegetarian Lasagna makes use of Barilla’s wavy pasta as it incorporates it with asparagus and eggplant. The old standby of spaghetti is used by a few celebrities like Jimmy Fallon. Some may never learn what Mostaccioli pasta is until they download the cookbook. It’s a hollow tube-shaped noodle similar to penne.
The ShareTheTable.com website is also filled with celebrity cooking tips and a community feature where home chefs can register to share their own thoughts and advice.
