For me pasta is the ultimate comfort food, and with the cool Fall weather right around the corner I am totally craving some pasta. I’m not picky when it comes to pasta. I’ll take it with a cream sauce, pesto, red sauce, a hearty meat sauce, a sprinkling of olive oil and garlic, or even just some roasted vegetables.
