This recipe is basic but has so much flavour and you could have dinner on the table in no time.
Its also a great way to hide some vegetables from the kids.
I made fresh pasta using my Philips Pasta & Noodle Maker. The pasta only took me 5 minutes prep and in 15 minutes I had fresh beautiful pasta. I couldn’t believe I had fresh pasta ready to go with my meal in the same amount of time it takes to make the sauce
