Weekends are already special to me, but there are some weekends that are extra special. My husband sometimes takes over cooking during weekends, and that’s the best thing to happen ever. I always boast about him being such a great cook. Sometimes I wonder what would have happened if he pursued culinary instead of his career today. Don’t get me wrong- I have no complaints. It was just a recurring thought because what kind of wife wouldn’t wonder?
So anyway, during the weekends he’s in-charge, he always surprises me and the kids with a recipe that we haven’t tried yet ever. Most of the time, he wins us over with just the smell. There were very few times when we didn’t favor his recipe; and those times were mostly of personal preferences and not because of his talent.
About a couple of weekends ago, he donned his apron and took charge of the weekend meals. I was a bit curious about what he’s going to cook, but he told me it’s a surprise. A classic surprise recipe never fails to entertain me.
The house was filled with a strange but intriguing aroma, which later turned out to be this pasta dish with red bell pepper sauce. I am not a fan of red bell peppers, but this pasta dish won over my heart because of the combination of ingredients. After consuming a large serving, I already told him he could take over again the week after.
He agreed. I am one lucky wife.

Quick Tip: For quick weeknight solutions, prepare and stuff cannelloni shells. Wrap tightly with wax paper; freeze until ready to serve. Let thaw in the refrigerator. Unwrap and place in a baking dish; top with your favorite supermarket pasta sauce, and bake as directed.
