Pasta with ham and taleggio it's an easy and very quick main course to prepare, ideal even when you have very little time and you arrive home at the last minute. This pasta is also ideal for children, especially my daughter which is really happy when I prepare it and last day, I came at home with an enormous piece of taleggio and she immediately imagined what I was going to use it for. For this recipe, you can use short pasta as I decided to do but also long pasta such as spaghetti, linguine or pappardelle but if you want to speed up this recipe even more I recommend you try it also with the gnocchi that cook in just 2 minutes (just look when they come to the surface) and they will be delicious.
