This pasta dish is sure to please the palate of any pasta lover.
Everyone needs several pasta recipes for their recipe box, so here is one more.
My sweet friend and co-worker Michelle Floyd forwarded me this recipe a couple weeks ago. This recipe calls for a jar of tomato sauce and a jar of alfredo sauce.
Some tomato-based dishes can be overwhelming with the tomato flavor. But I think the alfredo sauce helps cut that tomato taste and give this dish a nice combination of the sauces.
Michelle said this recipe was quick and easy, and that only adds to my love for this recipe.
