Dina Deleasa Instagram – Ever seen one of those interactive pasta stations at a wedding or a brunch? There is a mountain of plain pasta along with sauces and add-ins for your choosing. Customizing your plate is always a good time! We had been getting stuck in a dinner rut, or maybe I should say a cycle. Where Siena wasn’t trying new things, and dinner time was slowly becoming a battle. One night she picked up these little tongs I had from my cookbook shoot and started filling her plate. She had some buttered pasta in front of her and started throwing things in for fun. And to my surprise, trying it out!
Thus, the DIY pasta station board was born!
I always have a choice of a red sauce, butter or olive oil with parmesan, sometimes a pesto. I include roasted broccoli, olives, and mushrooms because they are all ingredients I have used in various pasta sauces. Being presented in a different way sometimes encourages more willingness to try. Especially when they are making their own choices.And of course, CHEESE! The beauty is you can mix and match based on your family’s preferences.
What would you include?!
