This was a super tasty side dish! Because it was winter and oh so chilly, I added sauteed mushrooms, chicken slices and green onions and heated everything up together. It was great. I will try this in summer alongside chicken on the grill and grilled veggies. Thanks, KUW!<br/>ps I used whole wheat pasta
