Feel like a quick and easy meal that also brings back childhood memories? This pasta dish is so easy to make and only has a handful of ingredients, most of them you will even have in your pantry or freezer!
I had some left-over pasta sheets from a Lasagne that I made a few weeks ago, which I had put in the freezer to keep. Tonight is one of those nights, where I just crave something quick, easy and simple.
I defrosted the pasta and cut it into strips to make homemade tagliatelle, whipped up the sauce and voilá, dinner was ready. Enjoy!

Put the dry pan back on the stove with the cream, ham, parmesan and nutmeg and warm it through.
