This meal is so easy to prepare and very tasty. Double the recipe if you’d like, because I will the next time I make it. I didn’t think my kids would care for it, so I only cooked half the box of pasta. My family practically licked the pan clean with the kids and my husband asking for seconds. This meal goes well with a nice garden salad and homemade bread.

I have tried cooking clam sauce for my pasta recipe, but I think adding fresh tomatoes will give a twist to my recipe.
