Try this!

This is a great recipe! So simple, easy and great flavor. You can probably substitute any kind of pasta but I liked trying the lasagna noodles not in lasagna. Its so great I'm even going to post the recipe AND skip the commentary AND tell you to get to the store and give it a try tonight! I know you'll add it to your "favorites" list.
