Every time I go to a wedding, I absolutely need to take a picture of the cake. I love to check out the different designs and if the cake is traditional or modern. The cake at the last wedding I went to was really pretty, with black and red offsetting the whiteness of the cake. The best part of this cake? Not only did it look breathtaking, but it tastes great too. It seemed like a normal white/vanilla interior, but the frosting was the best part. It seemed like a type of cream cheese frosting, which is my personal favorite. Read about the rest of the food after the jump!

I finally got a chance to try our newest product from our Recipe4Living Product Review Program. Made by Purity Foods, White Vita-Spelt Rotini seemed perfect for a pasta salad. These yummy spirals are also available in whole grain, but I sampled the gourmet white version. The box has 8 oz. worth of pasta, which equaled to a total of 840 calories. Not too bad. Check out the recipe for the pasta salad after the jump!

I eat pasta at least once a week, and I can honestly say it’s one of my favorite meals. While I prefer white pasta, now I usually go for wheat. It’s healthier, and it doesn’t taste too bad. The sauce is my favorite part. A creamy white sauce is my favorite, but it’s so fattening. Now I try to make a light red sauce or maybe some type of vegetable sauce. To celebrate this fun food week, check out my 7 favorite pasta recipes after the jump!

Even though pasta is typically thought of as fatty, I still eat it all the time! Something about noodles and sauce drives me wild! My issue is that I don’t have a lot of time to cook up a gourmet pasta meal. I need quick hitters that don’t take me longer than 30 minutes to cook. Heavy pastas are out too. It’s summer, and I don’t want to be weighed down by food. I want the pastas to be light and full of vegetables. Check out Recipe4Living’s Best 30-Minute Summer Pastas after the jump.
