"I'm sharing one of my favorite pasta dishes, it can be made into White Wine-Tomato-and-Clam Pasta using these changes; prepare sauce as directed, substituting dry white wine for red wine. Stir in 2 drained 6.5-ounce cans chopped clams to tomato mixture just before tossing with pasta mixture, SOOO YUMMY!"
