Stop Using Store Bought Pasta Sauce!
September 10, 2013
I made two of these varieties for the photos today. This one is the buffalo chicken version. I recently made this for my friend who hates blue cheese and I totally forgot to mention that there was blue cheese in it. Whoops! He loved it though and is probably gonna freak out when he sees this.
I also made a more standard tomato version. Seriously, just mix in the pasta and put it into the oven!
Optional parm topping.
The buffalo one all mixed together.
Tasty stuff!
