    Zucchini and pesto orecchiette with burrata 

    Lizzie Moss Lizzie Moss -
    Pesto is a perfect thing. It’s sharp and cheesy, but fresh and vibrant at the same time. Combined with a creamy sauce, it’s one of the most comforting pasta dishes out there, and perfect for this dreary weather.

    Veggie and ricotta rolls

    Marie Muccio Marie Muccio -
    The vegetarian version of a sausage roll without lacking any flavour. Every bite into that crispy pastry is a mouth full of deliciousness. You won’t believe it’s wholesome and so good for you.

    Roasted tomato linguine with fresh mozzarella 

    Lizzie Moss Lizzie Moss -
    If, like me, you’re trying to deny the fact winter is once again on us, then this is for you. Pour yourself a lemon soda (or better yet, a limoncello spritz), close your eyes and let’s pretend we’re in Italy. This pasta is low maintenance if you’re time-poor and is a good way to use up the last of the tomatoes.
