How y'all doing as 2018 nears the end of its moments? I'm happy though. It shows progress and growth. So this was one of the three courses for the Nairobi Kitchen Anniversary Giveaway competition. I love pasta, add chicken and you have a fast simple one pot meal that is delicious. The best part about one pot meals is that you will have less hassle when cleaning up and you put everything together and they cook as you wait to just serve. Fun fact: It is estimated that Italians eat over 60 pounds (27 kg) of pasta per person, per year, easily beating Americans, who eat about 20 pounds (9.1 kg) per person. Pasta is so beloved in Italy that individual consumption exceeds the average production of wheat of the country; thus Italy frequently imports wheat for pasta making. Pasta is not only delicious but nutritious as well since it has a lower glycemic index than many other staple foods in Western culture, like bread, potatoes, and rice. More reason to eat pasta everyday, if you can, that is. Enjoy today's chicken pasta dish and I hope you will enjoy it!

Looking for the perfect weeknight comfort food that’s quick, indulgent, and ultra-satisfying? This Rich Creamy Shells Pasta is your answer. With tender shell pasta coated in a velvety, cheesy cream sauce, this dish brings warmth and luxury to your table in under 30 minutes. Whether served as a main or a side, it’s bound to become a go-to favorite. It's been a while since I cooked a pasta dish so I thought why not go with pasta shells. I love this type of pasta because it has the added advantage of holding the ingredients inside their shells, so you always get that extra sauce stuck in between the hollow spaces. I also love cooking with pasta shells because they kind of remind me of the ocean. Which I haven't been to in a really long time. The last time I ever visited an ocean was when we were in primary school for a class 8 school trip when we were younger. It was a trip to Mombasa for a week. My best days were those spent collecting shells, which I would then tightly squeeze against my ear to hear the ocean breeze.

Today I am feeling unusually “quotsy.” Yes, I know that is not technically a word. Sometimes it feels like certain made-up words perfectly capture the chaos of thoughts buzzing through my head. Maybe it is the result of all the cooking inspiration I have been absorbing lately. Or perhaps it's because of the numerous open tabs on my browser. They are filled with culinary articles and flavor theory discussions. Either way, my brain has been marinating in ideas, and one quote in particular has taken hold of my thoughts.
