Pasta Walnetto

Submitted by Ms B.

"I have adopted this recipe and not yet tried it. The original chef states: "One of my favorite and unusual pasta recipes. I made this years ago and hadn't thought of it until today because my DH requested a high carb meal as he is running a marathon tomorrow. This is great as either a main dish or as a side dish.
