This pasta is so yummy! For some of you it may be a little bland...so if you know you like lots of flavor be sure to purchase additional garlic, basil and/or oregano to take it to (as Guy Fieri would say) FLAVORTOWN!
***After calculating the nutritional information I noticed that the sodium was crazy high. I verified each ingredient and the Hunt's Diced Tomatoes with basil, garlic and oregano is skewing the sodium number. The website I used to calculate this recipe has incorrect information. I looked up Hunt's nutritional information for this product and the sodium is 300mg per serving.
***I am not being paid to endorse Hunt's Diced Tomatoes...I just like it.
