Lemon and herb penne pasta

 Lemon and herb penne pasta...




So I woke one morning with a craving for pasta but something that was healthy but creamy at the same time. I figured let me be creative, So I put my pasta to boil and raided the fridge. I didn't feel  like meat cause that was going to take more time. I found some cherry tomatoes which I halved also chopped up some mushrooms and green peppers.

I put my pan on a medium heat added some olive oil about a tbsp full, then added my crushed garlic (cause garlic is yummy). Then I got my mushrooms braising and added my lemon and herb sauce which you can get at any supermarket. then I add the rest of my ingredients but I put my tomatoes last cause I  didn't want them to be soft and mushy, add my salt and pepper for that extra bit of  taste.

Now once I  had that braised put it off, My pasta  was ready  (strain the pasta).
Time to make my pasta Creamy....
This is my granny secret (Ssssh you didn't hear that from me!)
I got a cup of milk and added to tsp of mazina to it. I grated a bowl of gouda cheese and added it to my milk with a pinch of salt for flavor, Microwave it for a few minutes,  I stirred and added it into the pan with rest of the ingredients then put my pasta in with my creamy lemon and herb sauce, I left it on the low heat so that all the pasta could get the yummy sauce on it.
Once it was done I dished it out and put some rocket for that pinch of spicy taste.

I hope you Enjoyed reading my first blog post.
