The danger of watching the Food Network is I find myself compelled to try some of the dishes featured. This dinner a la Rachel Ray was Amazing. Phenomenal. Delicious. Yup, all those and more. It was easy to throw together, too.
I may have cheated by using spaghetti because that’s what was in the house. I wanted the dish, but didn’t want to shop….I didn’t miss the wider noodles. If you are a purist, feel free to use fettuccine 😉
