Lahore (Pakistan Point News - 15th Jul, 2022) There’s nothing like a good home-cooked meal. The familiarity, that unique homely taste that you can’t get anywhere else, and the ease of your own home is an experience that has no parallel. However, every once in a while, it is only natural to want to step out of the house for a gourmet meal of steak or delicious, mouth-watering pasta.

Doing that more than once might have been possible a few years ago, but the constant surge of inflation in the country doesn’t allow the common man to eat out as often with their family anymore. This means less frequent date nights and fewer trips to McDonald’s where your kids love getting a toy with their happy meals.

However, it is possible to enjoy the comfort and luxury of a restaurant-quality meal at home. You would be surprised at how you can create a top-notch dining-out experience in your living room with the abundance of simple recipes out there. All you have to do is roll back your sleeves and get to work.

Here's a simple, yet absolutely lip-smacking vegetable pasta recipe that you can whip up at home using ingredients that are usually present in your pantry. And the twist? We will add Knorr Chicken Cubes for that rich, distinct taste of chicken to this simple pasta recipe. Take a look.
