Notes

Add more garlic to your liking! We often use fresh garlic because it's easier -- know that fresh garlic will add a stronger flavor. You can mince the cloves and toss them in a fry pan on medium heat with a little oil for just a couple minutes (until fragrant and golden brown) if you prefer the roasted flavor! You can also substitute 1/4 teaspoon garlic powder for the 2 cloves in this recipe.

This recipe can be stretched to 6 or so servings with a little extra pasta 😉
