I made this for dinner tonight and we found it to be very flavoursome. For two people I used approximately 300 grams of bowtie pasta, 200 grams of perino tomatoes, vegetable stock and everything else listed with the exception of the garlic which I simply forgot to add. Regardless of this, we were very happy with the finished dish.<br/><br/>Thanks for a great recipe, conniecooks!
