WHITE SAUCE PASTA





White Sauce Pasta
Pasta is a staple and basic food of Italian cuisine. We get a variety of pasta and its recipes but macaroni pasta and white sauce are most common ones. When we add vegetables to it, it becomes a one pot meal. Made from semolina or durum wheat it’s a healthier substitute. The cheesy macaroni is healthy as a cheese slice has the calcium of a glass of milk. It’s not a diet food though but tastes yummy. Here’s a change in everyday breakfast routine.
