How delicious and couldn't be any easier than this. Lickety-split, done with fantastic results. Followed all as written, except used bow-tie pasta instead. Thank you, Dee, for sharing. Made it for The AmaZ'ing Race 2023 - Italy leg.

This is so delicious! The sauce really enhances the pasta with a creamy and delicious flavored sauce. It's so good I could eat this every day!

This is a delightful citrusy pasta that we love. I made a combination of Grana Padano, Asiago & Mozzarella for the Italian cheese blend, did not have penne, so I used soba noodles. Will be making this again. Thanks Dienia for sharing. Made for Billboard Recipe Tag. UPDATE /26/20 I used green tea pasta with great results. Never fails to please!
