I love pasta and am always up for a quick and easy, yet tasty pasta dish that the kids like too. This has become a favorite in the our family, it's such an easy go to meal hence the paper plate. This is real life y'all and sometimes this mama wants a simple dinner from dishes to food!
I'm also a salty gal so I add a bit of extra salt and a few squirts of lemon juice to top it off... delish!
