It’s Friday, and I am serving up this Creamy Butternut and Burnt Sage Pasta which is a Gluten and Dairy Free, Vegetarian Pasta Dish, that’s super easy to make and is easy on the pocket and the stomach.
If you aren’t dairy sensitive, just swop the milk alternative for cream or milk.
This recipe uses the natural creamy texture of Butternut to coat and brings flavour to the pasta shells.
Enjoy,
Love,
