Creamy Pasta
Simple and so easy and definitely a family favorite. Creamy and cheesey with a mild balance of flavors.
Pasta loved by all, hated by few or none I must say. A crowd pleaser at a party too. Lunch, dinner or even a snack, it fit in very well.
A lunchbox is turned into a yum time, those lil eyes light up and it’s devoured in no time.
The freshness of basil adds a deep flavor.
Try it for yourself. It’s such a simple and an amazing dish.
