Pretty Pasta

This colorful concoction was created by my boyfriend the other night. It’s always a sweet treat when he cooks for me because for one thing, he doesn’t do it as often as he’d like, and for another, it’s my turn to get to sit back, relax, and watch him be creative in the kitchen (not to mention that he looks awfully cute in his apron with the kangaroo print)! He puts a lot of effort into the process of preparing his dishes and since he’s such a stickler for freshness, does most of his ingredient shopping just a few hours before the actual cooking. On this particular night he made a tri-color pasta dish with ground beef and loads of fresh vegetables, topped with tomato sauce and chunks of Fuji apples.
Isn’t it lovely?
