by Ma cuisine de tous les jours

This "Green Goddess" sauce is packed with nutritious goodness while being truly creamy and delightfully flavorful, exactly the kind of color you want to add to your plate in the midst of a gray November. Fresh herbs bring a lot of taste and freshness to the dish, and the pasta is an excellent source of protein. They are divine and a beautiful gluten-free alternative.
This is the kind of dinner I would love to add to my family table night after night!
