This pasta dish is nutritionally very complete, but it is also delicious and children love it.

The choice of chorizo is on your own, according to the tastes of the family and the people who are going to enjoy this delicious dish. If there are no small children at the table, you can choose a spicy chorizo and it will give it a special touch to pasta. On the other hand, for the little ones, a soft chorizo such as chistorra, may be more recommended.
