uwagi
- This pasta dish reheats very well. Can also be frozen.
- Instead of green olives, you can use kalamata or black olives, but green olives work best for me in this recipe.
- Instead of canned crushed tomatoes, you can use tomato passata or fresh tomatoes when they're in season.
- This recipe can be easily doubled or tripled.
- Calories = 1 serving (½ recipe), this is only an estimate!
