From Bacon's blog:

This month we have a suggestion from my brother Easy.  This month we are highlighting PASTA - what is your favorite PASTA dish?  How do you make it?  What kind of noodles do you use?  What is in your PASTA?  There is no limit count on ingredients - Share your recipe and picture!
Meet back here on Wednesday, February 24th, 2016 to share your recipe and pictures!


Our recipe today is from a favorite Italian cookbook of Mom's

I have recently tried cubed pork, a 1/2 minced jalepeno pepper, minced green pepper, and crushed canned tomato, simmered 30 mitues over thin shapghetti. It is "interesting" and I do it every couple weeks now. ~ TBT
