You will enjoy this delicious pasta with loads of crisp vegetables. The soft cauliflower blends well with the tanginess of the Brussels sprouts. The bucatini pasta absorbs the sauce very well. Do not let yourself be intimidated by the anchovies, however you will not taste at all and yet they give the saltiness that is needed. The bread crumbs will bind the sauce. A must try recipe for fall.

Wishing you all a wonderful new week.
