"Seafood pasta makes an easy meal idea whether for lunch or dinner. Treat yourself or your family to this yummy meal - they will love you for it.
*I used mussels from Aldi so they were already in a sauce - however, I followed my recipe by adding to the flavourings for extra depth of flavour. Otherwise, feel free to use 400g of fresh mussels and ensure they are properly cleaned in cold water."
