I am becoming a pasta fan with recipes like this one!! This was excellent, simple and quick. I, too, used skim milk but I added to the fat by replacing one can of tuna with a can of smoked oysters. Hope everyone uses real parmesan cheese and not the cardboard stuff. It makes a difference. Thank for the recipe.

I love to cook. Since I quit smoking I have gained weight thus I am into low-fat recipes. The most important thing that I have learned is that if it is low-fat and has no taste why would you eat it. My goal is to have a cookbook filled with wonderful tasting recipes which are low-fat.
