One Pot Basil Pasta
I saw this recipe as a video done by the amazing Buzzfreed Tasty originally, and simply had to try it! I’ve never actually tried a one pot pasta before but seeing it done on video left me in no doubt that it would work amazingly. Not only is this absolutely delicious but a huge upside is that you’re saving on washing up, and in my life that’s always a bonus! Another big plus is that this meal is ‘free’ on Slimming World as well as being quick, simple and full of flavour from the fresh herbs. I made the recipe to feed four and also tweaked it slightly using stock and adding bacon bits to just lift the flavour and texture slightly!
