G - 10-Min Pancetta & Mushroom Alfredo
This dish is super speedy, thanks to quick-cook pasta... and a few other little nifty tricks! The creamy sauce is packed with flavour thanks to garlic paste, mushrooms (just tear 'em in!) and speedy pancetta lardons. Topped with plenty of grated cheese and fresh chives, this is one for all the family to enjoy!
