with Veggie 'Nduja and Balsamic Side Salad
A simple tomato sauce is spiced up with vegan 'Nduja, adding heat that pairs beautifully with the creamy filling of the ham pasta. Featuring a hot, umami blend of Calabrian chillies and peppers, this 'Nduja is completely meat-free but with all the same flavour.
