A pasta dish, worthy of any Italian restaurant. Traditional Italian flavours of garlic, oregano, basil and tomatoes, with a decadent creamy texture.
This recipe uses oat cream substitute which can now be purchased from most supermarkets, in the vegan section, and is about 25% lower in calories than single cream.
