Pasta Genovese, comfort food / carb coma

Yum yum nom nom. Pasta Genovese is about the first food I've prepared 2 days in a row just because it is so good. It IS. SO good, warm, creamy, gooey, filling...And how quick and easy, just throw everyhing in a pot! The dish makes me feel having an imaginary Italian nonna serving it to me. Total comfort food. Yesterday with red tomato+olive sauce, today with home made pesto. We had some snow, so there's need for extra warming winter foods! Spuds!

But as it seems to be with white pasta,  and now even more as there were potatos added, the quick carbonhydrates makes me sleepy, lethargic and drowsy after eating and next morning. Not to mention swollen and puffy. So I guess it is arrivederci nonna, at least for some time now.
