Fideo pasta is one of my favorites. Its pretty much a cut angel hair pasta that’s been toasted prior to cooking. Its commonly used in Spanish cooking but when I have it on hand anything goes. I love having fideo on hand for a couple reasons. One, Kids love it! It makes so much less of a mess since they can get it all in their mouths. Two, anytime I’m in the mood for a warm pasta and veggie dish fideo is a quick one pan in and out kind of thing. Try this dish out and let me know what you think!
