I have always been a pasta-gal. To me, carbs in the form of pasta is a pure comfort food. When I’m feeling sad, anxious or stressed (sometimes all of those things at the same time), a big bowl of pasta is just the thing I need to calm my spirits and feel better! It is no surprise that I’ve been turning to carbs every once in a while during quarantine for that little extra feeling of comfort. I know I’m not the only one! It’s hard to be away from family, friends, and coworkers. Somehow a warm pasta dish makes things a little bit better. And that is where this beautiful Sun-Dried Tomato & Artichoke Pasta dish comes in handy. It’s not heavy, creamy, or rich. Instead, it’s made with simple ingredients and it really hits the spot.
