Pasta and Fresh Cilantro Crunchy Stuff

Submitted by: Teagan 
Cilantro, basil, and parmesan cheese are toasted in the oven to create a crunchy topping for a sun-dried tomato, and mushroom pasta. This is such a tasty recipe! If you're looking for something different, here it is! I get compliments on this all the time. There's some work involved but it's so worth it.

A garlic and ginger rub sets the stage for a spicy, homemade cilantro chutney to serve over chicken baked in a divine cashew cream. Definitely worth the work!

This is a great pasta that can be eaten at room temperature or as a cold salad. Instant, sophisticated meal or side dish! And colorful, too. Any type of twisty or unusually shaped pasta works well.
