Pasta! Pasta! Pasta! the most famous and most desired food among most kids out here. My daughter loves the stringy spaghetti or campanile type of pasta and I have started making more of those to get her to enjoy her food and finish up her meal without much supervision. I made this 2 days ago and it was truly delicious and loaded in flavor. For those spicy food lovers add more pepper or even crushed chilli flakes but please do try this for its taste and aromatic flavor.It is also healthy because I made it with multi grain pasta. If you are a garlic lover like me it would win your vote.
