I always try my best for my children to eat a health meal. Veggies or salad have to be part of the dish.
I also try to be creative with my dish, so this time I blended fresh basil with fresh spinach and tossed it with the spaghetti pasta.
While the spaghetti was cooking I roasted some fresh Cherry Tomatoes in the oven, to then use them to garnish my pasta dish. It was yummy and delicious!
