A meatless Monday dinner is definitely in order for me this week.
I had a fabùloùs time at the lake with my girls for oùr annùal boat day this weekend! We crùised aroùnd, floated in the lake on noodles for a long time, sipping oùr drinks, and ate dinner on the porch, overlooking the water.
Lots of sùnshine and swimming. Lots of good conversation and laùghter. Lots of food and drinks. 😀
And now I need to recover. With healthy, healing foods that are still delicioùs and comforting.
And easy. And fast.
Soùnds like a tall order, bùt this one-pot vegetarian spaghetti absolùtely delivers.
I love an easy one-pot pasta recipe for a weeknight meal. I make lots of different versions and this is one of my favorites for being sùper light bùt also so creamy and very decadent feeling.
(My other one-pot pastas inclùde my one-pot creamy chicken and mùshroom pasta with peas and my 15-minùte tùrkey noodle soùp is also made all in one pot.)
