Jingle Bell Pasta

I love pasta, so I was very excited to find @vicini_pastaria. We first tried the pasta after a visit to Tower Grove Farmer’s Market. It was heaven and I could not buy enough of it.

Big Guy noticed they now have a brick and mortar on Park Avenue near Lafayette Park, so we had to plan a visit. We were rewarded with an adorable shop and plenty of pasta options to make my dreams come true.

We opted for the jingle bell pasta in the spirit of the season. To complement the red and green pasta, I added sugar snap peas, red bell pepper, and onion in a white sauce. I had left over chicken and bacon which I added for the protein and additional flavor. I topped it off with Parmesan cheese and dinner was served with a side salad and a lovely bottle of wine. So good!
