Hi everyone,
Do you know this feeling when you‘re hungry but don‘t know what to cook ?! For these cases it‘s sometimes quite handy if you can get any food inspirations or recipe ideas somewhere. That’s why I got inspired by the website “www.einfach-lecker.de” this time and created this autumnal pasta dish in collaboration. You know that I love noodles more than anything else and I think there are so many ways to enjoy pasta dishes, since pasta is so versatile and never gets boring. In addition, pasta is just always delicious, it’s super easy and quick to prepare, and also makes you satisfied and even happy!
At the moment I also like roasted mushrooms with garlic very much, as well as pomegranate seeds as a fruity topping. Especially in combination with nuts, I think it’s very suitable for the autumn season. So I‘ve also integrated my favorites in the “basic recipe”.
This recipe is prepared in less than 20 minutes, vegetarian and even with vegan option, when you simply use nutritional yeast flakes or another vegan cheese alternative as topping instead of conventional parmesan cheese made of cow milk. But this meal will also taste very good without that extra “cheese”!
I hope you enjoy trying it and hope that you‘ll love the recipe just like me!
Much love,
Bianca ❤️

Hi Diana,
Thank you!?
So happy that you liked this recipe.
Lots of love,

I made this recipe for dinner yesterday and it was delish! The toasted walnuts add soooo much flavour, I recommend one not skip that step! The Pesto Rosso adds a creamy texture without the heavy cream ingredients- pure comfort. Homegrown cherry tomatoes and basil from the garden to garnish and yumm, will be making it again 🙂 Thank you, Bianca, for sharing!
