This dish was filched from Pia. It was 100% hers. She chose the flavors, ingredients and I just cooked it. She did the taste testing for salt. Everything. (In my version I add red pepper flakes to the mix for just the slightest bit of heat!) But it is still gluten free, dairy, egg, garlic and sugar free.

Pasta with Tomato and Bacon- vegan/ gluten free

She also styled this shoot (which is adorable!!) I mean, she picked out the bowl and then went and found that napkin out of the “random cocktail napkin drawer.” Isn’t that funny!? The good news is that it was really very delicious. We ate it a few weeks ago on an exhausted Friday evening. Pete and I added a kale salad and a bottle of red wine to our meal…
