One Pot Pasta Dish
I absolutely love these one pot dishes, especially on a night where I don’t want to do a lot of dishes! I am also a sucker for good cookware and have deemed my Le Creuset as my BFF.
Here is Wyoming, we have already started experiencing fall weather, so this dish is perfect for those cool nights and packed with flavor!
