Easy weeknight meal.

I love an easy weeknight meal.  

Something I can whip together in under 30 minutes. 

This is such a meal. 

And I believe it took closer to 15 minutes to prepare. 

Of course, that was when my insta-hot water dispenser was working and I was never more than 2-3 minutes away from a pot of boiling water. I fear it may take every bit of 30 minutes if you have to wait {as I have this week} for tepid water to come to a boil. Honestly, how does anyone live without an insta-hot dispenser?  If you do, I send my sincerest apologies. Truly.

Well we do, so you'll be glad to know {because you are generous like that} that my handyman is currently installing my new insta-hot water dispenser! Because truly, I don't have time to wait for water to boil {ok, that made me laugh and feel a little silly - see writing can be cathartic like that}. 

Now, on to the point -- this creamy, delicious goodness: 





The recipe starts with pancetta, followed by butter, followed by wine, followed by cream. Yes, go ahead and just take it in for a minute.

Yum.

Of course, you then add a large pile of leeks, which only adds to the creamy, delicious goodness, but yet, still counts as a veggie!  Win-win! 


Try it this week. You will not be sorry.

Yes! For Christmas you should really get a insta-hot water dispenser. May sound lame, but you'd love it! Hot tea instantly too!

And no, this is not a sponsored post! ; )
You had me at Pancetta. :)

I love that Pioneer Woman and her delicious pasta recipes. Will have to try this. And am forwarding your post to Mark, as my not-so-sneaky way of asking for the insta-hot dispenser.

Smart! It is truly one of those things I could have lived my entire life without and been just fine. But now that I've had one for 5 years, well, there is no way I'm going back to life without. ; )
