Lemon Basil Pasta

It’s tangy, It’s cheesy, and it has enough flavors to drive your taste buds wanting for more. This lemon basil pasta is delicious by itself, but if you prefer a little protein boost, top it with some of your favorite beans. Chickpeas or cannellini are excellent choices!

It can be a perfect weeknight dinner, or a quick fix for any of the weekends when you feel like having something homemade without having to put in any extra effort.
