Fettuccini with Arugula Pesto & Roasted Cherry Tomatoes

We just got back from the vacation of my dreams! I’ve always wanted to visit Italy, and I had the opportunity to go this year. Carl and I had the absolute BEST time! I picked Naples to visit because the food scene there is out of this world! It’s the birthplace of pizza along with…
