People are actually reading my blog!

Wow, I never actually thought it would happen to me, I am almost treating this blog as my own favourites recipe book- do you remember the one your grandma had, with magazine cut outs, handwritten recipes, notes, and looked about a million years old? Well, this is the modern version! 

Being 6 weeks off having a baby, I don't have much energy for much really, but I think I had better give you my latest favourite meal.

Sun-dried tomato Alfredo fettuccine, or as my son calls it:

The Best Pasta in Town! 

This is not my recipe, I wish it was, though! 


I put a cup of vegetable broth, as I found it was too thick, and I don't put the basil leaves in - kids don't generally like whole basil leaves. 

My tip for making a great meal in only half an hour for the whole family- start soaking the cashews, boil the water for the pasta, and whilst waiting for the pasta to cook and cashews to soak, add all of the ingredients into your blender (or if you are lucky, thermomix). Your cashews and pasta will be ready at the same time. Blend, and add to the pasta- and you are ready to go! 

My husband loves this, as well as my mum, brother and mother in law. So far, 100% of people that have tried it love it! 

Let me know what you think!
