Who said spaghetti isn’t classy?

Who said spaghetti isn’t classy? Here’s to taking simpleton food and kicking it up a notch. Featuring: Spaghetti in truffle & cashew pesto over mushroom cream sauce, topped with a spicy chicken meatball. Served as a small plate... this make for the perfect appetizer for a gathering (whenever we can gather that is) or for the first course of an intimate Valetine’s dinner with your beau. Meatballs: 1 lb ground chicken, minced garlic, italian spices, salt, 1 egg, 1/2 cup breadcrumbs and some grated parmesan cheese. Mix well, scoop balls onto parchment paper and air fry at 375F for approx 10 mins. Spaghetti: Cook as per box instructions, lightly sauté in olive oil and add a couple spoons of @traderjoes black truffle cashew pesto. Mix to coat. Sauce: Sauté minced garlic in olive oil. Add sliced onions, sliced mushrooms. Cook. Add heavy cream or half & half, salt, some basil leaves and let the sauce heat well. Assemble and plate as you like. Enjoy. We indulged in this plated expression over some chatter, a movie and a side of wine. That was the best! Make it. Share it.
