New York Times Cooking Recipe Dupe (with ease): Midnight Pasta

NYT Midnight Pasta

Welcome, new best friend! You’ll be calling us your new best friend after you read our Midnight Pasta New York Times recipe dupe. We made the NYT delish recipe… so much easier!

If there is anything we love, it is someone else handing us a wonderful recipe. Most of the time though, we take out the grunt work, cut some corners, and tailor it to fit our palette, lifestyle, and schedule.  Sure, some people would say we are eradicating the art of cooking, but if we are going to be preparing food at home, there is no way we are going to spend hours doing it.

Most of the time, we are making recipes meat-free, nut-free (due to Shannon’s anaphylactic tree nut allergy), or a little healthier.

We found the New York Times Cooking’s recipe for Midnight Pasta or Aglio e olio pasta, and fell in love!

Why is it called that? Get this! It’s called that because, after a late night of drinking, you can throw it together fairly quickly with a few kitchen staples. That is music to our ears, however, the recipe that the New York Times published, had us roasting our garlic, adding about 40-50 minutes. Um, no thanks.

As much as we adore fresh produce, we also prefer having more time on our hands, not to mention the fact that we did not have any fresh garlic on hand, nor fresh parsley, so we opted for the parsley flaked from our spice cabinet.

Our version took about 20 minutes from start to finish to make. Feel free to click the link above, if you want the full New York Times Cooking Recipe, or if you want the shortcut, keep reading and join us.

*We paired a light salad with this meal and ate off of the pasta for a few days. Yummy, and easy!

Elaine Mercedes Mendoza left her safe corporate job in 2015 to pursue a happier life with more freedom. Since then, she has traveled to so many cities and countries around the world that she has lost count. She is a Contributing Author in “Time to Rise” where she was featured and called a “Change-Maker” by The Gandhi Foundation in 2017.
🎙️
We found Elaine through her TED Talk “The Power of Labels to Change Your Story.” Her world travels have served as a classroom to help her heal the labels that were once in control of her life and that is very possibly affecting yours and helps us become aware of our own labels that hold us back and the stories we tell ourselves about others.
🎙️
We chat with Elaine about:
☑️How Elaine pivoted to a path of minimalism to pursue travel.
☑️The most important lessons Elaine learned from traveling and meeting different people.
☑️Elaine discusses the power of labels and her experience with them throughout her life.
☑️What inspired Elaine to share her story around travel and minimalism, and her upcoming novel “Humanized–Life Beyond Labels”.
☑️Elaine answers our “Fast 5 Questions” and the question we ask all of our guests, “What does a life well lived mean to you?”

Elaine exudes inspiration and hope for humanity! We hope you tune into this conversation— we know you will love it!
