These days I am really busy with a teething baby and an over demanding 7 year girl and sometimes I even don’t find time to cook something . So whenever I feel like having less time I prefer to make pastas .
For second day of cooking pastas in different sauces I made spaghetti in cilantro walnut pesto sauce. This pesto sauce gave the spaghetti a fresh and nutty flavor .
So let’s start the recipe .yum
