Notes & Tips

This dish can be reheated. It can also be frozen. Pasta actually holds together better if this dish is made early and put in the fridge, then reheated to serve. Can be a meal on it's own or add a nice crisp salad side dish.

    My whole family love this recipe. We all know how to make it without even thinking and always have the ingredients on hand. My husband isn't a big pasta eater and even he likes it. He does get dissapointed if we run out of chips and I skip that step.
