Chorizo And Chick Pea Spaghettini
A suitably fast and tasty dinner recipe to feed the crowd middle of the week, in style! Should I do a full on pasta cookbook?? I think so!
Another dinner on the run as always. Throw it in, and rush off to drop kids off to something, pick kids up from something, put your lippy on, heat up your curling iron, check the laundry has not taken over the laundry room, run the bath or whatever. Delicious dinner done in no time…please enjoy.
Pasta is the way to keep busy kids full mid week and this is just the ticket. Dairy free if you don't douse it with parmesan at the end! Where's the garlic bread??
