GRILLED SUMMER SQUASH AND TOMATOES WITH ANGEL HAIR PASTA
This is so simple and so good. I make this on an indoor grill, but it can be made on an outside grill or in a stovetop grill pan. This is adapted from a recipe in Everyday Food Magazine (#3), and the original recipe is pasta and cheese-less and also includes grilled chicken. Sometimes I also make it that way.

CHICKEN BREASTS WITH ANGEL HAIR PASTA
I was having a dinner party a few years ago and had to come up with something simple. I was working a full time job and didn't have a lot of time to spend on cooking after I got home. This recipe doesn't call for a lot of items and only takes a short time to make it. You can use boneless, skinless, chicken breasts too.
