“Super easy to make! I made this for my husband, toddler and myself, it was a hit. My mother had it for left overs and really enjoyed it as well! Unfortunately my grocery store doesn’t carry orecchiette pasta so I used bow tie pasta and it’s great. I’ve made it” — a cook, 5.0★
“Can I just say this is a simple masterpiece!!! I made it with shredded brussel sprouts and roasted the garlic with it, also i couldnt find chicken sausage so i used italian and used the pesto on the side. And added fresh green onion at the end. My family lo” — a cook, 5.0★
