in American, Italian, Pasta, Vegan

I make pasta a lot!!   It is so versatile, you can add just about anything to a pasta dish.   There is something about a tomato sauce, I just love it.   Chantal is also a Spaghetti and (vegan) meat sauce addict.   Everyone has a preference on the amount of sauce to use.   I like the pasta to be perfectly coated with sauce but Chantal prefers a lot of sauce.   This post includes photos of spaghetti with a lot of sauce.
