Italian cuisine is a rather diverse one, with options ranging from aesthetic, herby dishes and luxurious cheesy ones, to tangy and saucy options. Penne with Cheesy Vegetables is one such exciting option dominated by cheese and loads of veggies flavoured with garlic, chilli flakes and of course, pepper. Adding corn flour dissolved in milk gives it a very creamy texture and pleasant mouth-feel. It is a satiating meal-in-a-bowl perfect for a busy day when you do not have time to cook up something elaborate.
