It was very kind and considerate of the organizers of the all-women BlogHer to invite celebrity chef Rocco DiSpirito as a guest presenter. Most of the women here were purring his name Rrrrrroco, and I must agree, he is pretty easy on the eyes.
If you were an attendee, and can't remember what he cooked up because you were too consumed with staring at his cute mug, let me give you a refresher. He whipped up a quick and easy pasta dish using tomato sauces from Bertolli, and enhanced them with fresh ingredients such as shrimp, garlic, peperoncini, olives and parsley.
While I personally prefer to cook from scratch, enjoying the process of cooking and creating, it certainly was worth watching a hot man cook for a bunch of women.
Did I just say that out loud?
Check out his latest book Rocco's Real-Life Recipes. He really does know his stuff.

Such a hot chef. He's so distracting. Such a good looking guy shouldn't be allowed to cook especially in front of the ladies. :D
