Since of late, I’ve been longing for pasta; not sure why. Gorgeous outcome and love the addition of caulis inside. Let me see how’s my week gonna be. And if I can squeeze the time for cooking, this pasta will be my dinner.
I am gonna tell you a secret: Besides desserts and breads, pastas are one of the things that I crave the most. This looks fantastic!

That pasta looks very inviting. I have never tried having or making pasta with veggies since my family is hard core non vegetarians. It must have tasted amazing I am sure.
