Gigi Hadid Pasta

This Gigi Hadid Pasta is the pasta that Gigi Hadid shared in the early 2020, at the height of lockdown. This pasta became viral for a reason. It is creamy and yummy.

I am used to eating pasta that has meat to it as my husband is a carnivore. When I tasted this Gigi Hadid pasta, it is so delicious that I cannot tell that it is vegetarian. There is no meat at all in it.
