To dream, the impossible dream. That’s what I did. Yep, I dreamed a dream in time gone by. And yes, sweet dreams are made of these.
What’s in a dream? Orecchiette, sausage and chickpeas. It’s true, I dreamed up this recipe. The next morning, I went to the market and had it prepared by 11:00 am. If only Freud were around to analyze this one. Then again, we don’t need him to tell you that I’m crazy and that this recipe is crazy good.
It’s dreamy.
Buon Appetito!
