This was good, and we followed the recipe exactly, but it needed more of a sauce, as some of the pasta was bland and dry.

I doubled the recipe and DH told me next time to triple it LOL It's delicious. I used roma tomatoes from my garden. I used unsalted butter. This recipe is 3 serving, but maybe it's not enough for 2 adults. I double it and me and DH ate 1 serving each. DS a little bit. And I have only one serving left for tomorrow. Thanks Lainey. Made for Holiday tag.
