Pasta in yummy spinach sauce, an another variation on pasta sauce. Sauce made of spinach and broccoli, I used frozen which makes this recipe little simple and quick. It’s full of fibre and healthy, moreover it taste great. it’s very healthy dish, with green vegetables.
Its a hit at our house, my children loves it. They don’t know that they are eating broccoli lol. They love spinach so this dish is popular with them.
Pasta is great comfort food, have it warm or cold it’s equally delicious. I like to make both kind of pastas Wholemeal or white, but family favourite is white so that wins most of the times hehe.
