Olive, tomato & chicken Alfredo bowties
I have to be really sick to not want to cook. I’ve been stuck in bed for 4 days and I can (barely) eat. Alex doesn’t recognize me anymore. He’s worried to see me bed-ridden, as I’m usually an early riser with a million projects on the go.
Last night, I asked him to go pick up a few ingredients so I could prepare something easy today. This is the result. Rest assured I’ll try it again when I’m in better shape!
