My absolute favourite food to eat is fresh vegetable pasta. I love this dish because it is warm, tasty, and easy to make at home. The pasta is boiled until soft, and then mixed with sweet tomato sauce, garlic, and colorful vegetables like peppers and mushrooms. I always add a small sprinkle of cheese on top before eating. It smells wonderful while it is cooking on the stove. My mother taught me how to cook this simple recipe when I was young, so it always makes me feel happy and comfortable. I like to eat this meal on weekend evenings when my whole family sits together around the dining table. We talk about our week while enjoying the delicious food. I could eat pasta every single week and never get tired of it.
