Mama's been having a really hectic time here at her little bnb Lily's Cottage, firstly with wedding guests from afar and then Easter holiday makers arrived, left & arrived again; so today's budget beater is a super speedy meal that she always puts together in a flash when really really rushed for time!

The bonus is that you only need a handful of ingredients to make this delicious pasta dish, so it really is the best budget beater ever!
