Herb and Garlic Clam Linguini 

What an exciting post I have for you today this Herb and Garlic Clam Linguini. It uses Gourmet Garden Herbs and Spices. We were to come up with easy entertaining recipes.

Well, I didn’t have to think long and hard on this one. This recipe today is one of our favorites, we have made it I bet a hundred times. It is easy and so company-worthy!!

Also a nice break from all the traditional trimmings. If you are having unexpected company, this dish can be brought to life with little effort and it will wow the crowd!!!

It is full of wonderful herbs and garlic and with Gourmet Garden’s help, it is an easy throw-together meal.

You Gotta Try Them!

I had not tried their products before but I was so impressed. I will be using them again and again. Fresh herb taste, in easy to use tubes, you can’t go wrong!!! They also have a huge variety to choose from. Herbs and spices that will last in your fridge so much longer than fresh!!!

Herbs are a staple in our fridge at all times. I have already turned over my garlic for someone else to prep, it is a time saver for sure. From now on it will be Gourmet Garden doing the work for me. They are used on a 1:1 ratio for fresh herbs and a 2:1 for dried, 2 Tbsp. Gourmet Gardens to 1 Tbsp. dried.

They are easy to find too in your grocery store, as they are close to the fresh herbs in the refrigerated section.

A big bowl of rich wonderful flavors awaits you with this recipe. Looks at all the herbs in there!!

The gourmet garden will bring your dinners, appetizers, and even desserts to life with ease!!!
