Submitted by ElizabethKnicely

"A big thanks to Justine for sharing this recipe with me! I tossed in some diced ham I had in the freezer. Easy. Quick. Delicious! And by quick, I mean less than 15 minutes quick! Just get the pasta boiling and work on the rest while the pasta is cooking. 15 minutes. That's it!!!! This would be fantastic with leftover holiday ham! If you're planning/thinking that far ahead!!!"
