Creamy Pasta
The rich, buttery taste of this creamy pasta dish reminds me of my childhood. I remember on Sunday nights my mom would make a huge pot of this, calling me and my school friends in from playing on the front lawn and we’d rush quickly to devour a bowl of the cheesy, coconutty goodness. It became our weekly ritual all the way through junior school and became our Sunday study dish during high school. Now I continue the tradition with my children and their friends. They’re the kind of Sundays that I hope never end.
