COOKBOOK: Take 5 recipe
These pasta ‘salads’ served with spinach leaves are becoming a real trend! They used to serve green salad on a side dish, but not anymore!
I’m a huge fan of my salad added into my pasta, whether it be lettuce or baby spinach. They say adding a green salad leaf in the pasta is better for the digestion.
These servings are filling me up, no need to go for seconds (call that a good or bad thing) I’m loving these recipes and hope you do too.
Super easy to make!
Enjoy
