Mostacolli With Meat Sauce
"This is a recipe that was given to me 35 years ago from an Italian friend. This is a really nice pasta dish served with a salad, garlic bread and wine. The only difference is when I make this, I do not mix up the meat sauce and pasta together unless I am serving a crowd. I usually cook up about 6-8 ounces of the pasta and spoon the sauce over individual plates of the mostaccioli noodles. I freeze the rest of the sauce to make another meal later on."
Original is 10-12 servings
