Take a look at the size of this pasta! It's like a giant cork-screw!
I found this a few months ago at Target. I was thinking about what recipe that I could use this in, maybe a pasta bake or a mac-cheese dish. Or maybe some kind of an unusual pasta sauce to go with such unusual pasta. Well I finally decided to go with the sauce that was written on the back of the package.
The only thing that I changed in the recipe is the amount of tomatoes and tomato sauce that I used because I used what I had on hand. I have written by the change in parenthesis.
I am sure you are wondering about the taste of this sauce. It is wonderful or sure I say it was wonderful because there is none left!
