I got this recipe from Taste of Home website; and have used it many times. ALL of my friends and family LOVE it. Continually being asked for the recipe! For a low fat version, just make it with non or low fat products and use whole wheat pasta! For a more hearty main dish, add a pound of smoked sausage or diced ham.
