Also excellent with Angel Hair Pasta. You can sub almost any vegetable,if you don't like one find another. I put veggies in one bowl, shrimp or scallops in another, and the pasta with sauce in another. Everyone cleans there plate and you can make veggies ahead. Super recipe, and even liked by kids.
