Here, Jessica Simkin – Flex yoga instructor, mother and the founder of BodyAwakenings supplements – shows us how to make the perfect version.“This recipe is a regular in my household, because it’s easy to make, totally delicious and loved by adults and my children,” says Jessica.“I swap regular pasta for brown rice pasta to make it a gluten free dish, but either will work.“And not everyone loves anchovies, but I am a fan. Anchovies are packed with healthy Omega-3 fats and provide good amounts of calcium, iron and selenium. “These little fish are low on the food chain which means they do not contain the contaminants (such as mercury) often present in larger fish.”
