@natsnourishments - “Welcome back to my series of what I look to cook for myself after a long day of work. I made this earlier in the week and it was delicious!! So simple and easy and was literally ready in the time it took for the pasta to be al dente. Roasted peppers from a jar are a total saviour if you need something quick and flavoursome!”
