It’s the silky pasta, roasted vegetables and a flavourful pesto that creates this ‘knock your socks off’ recipe and it's ready in only 15 minutes.
It’s the silky pasta, roasted vegetables and a flavourful pesto that creates this ‘knock your socks off’ recipe to kick start and celebrate Gluten Free cooking and #coeliacawarenessweek
During this week we celebrate all things Coeliac and I am honoured to team up with @barillaaus who is a proud supporter of raising awareness of the disease. Their Gluten Free Pasta range is made with a unique combination of rice and corn flour and it looks, cooks, and tastes like regular pasta so the whole family can enjoy it together. Along with their pasta is the sauce and pesto range that is all naturally Gluten Free as well.
Since we love that Barilla has created such amazing products for the coeliac community, I wanted to share my easy, delicious, healthy, and fuss-free weeknight pasta meal that I cooked with their Gluten Free Spaghetti and Basil and Rocket Pesto. I hope you enjoy it as much as we love it. Enjoy!
