Reviews
Very simple and fast. I added diced sun dried tomatoes, red chili flakes and broccoli. My husband said it was the best pasta I have made so far and he is pretty picky.
this was quick, easy, and yummy! I added some red pepper flakes for heat and used medium shell pasta. Very good
Parsley Olive Oil Sauce is the perfect sauce for any pasta, and for those tomes when you are low on cash & still need to eat
I added more garlic of course and added Broccoli & red peppers for color. Grilled chicken on top of the pasta and served with wine. Great looking plate and absolutely delicious! This was so easy and we both loved it. I will use this recipe with shrimp as well!

This was simple and so GOOD!! My kids loved it! I think I may add grilled chicken to it next time. I also used whole wheat angel hair… added a tiny bit more olive oil, and topped with parmesan. We will make this again.
I really did not need the recipe to make pasta, but the sauce is to die for. It is very similar to a local resturants special sauce called “Hot Naked”.
It is a very simple recipe. It takes about 5 minutes to make, but tastes like you spent hours in the kitchen preparing it!! You must try it at least once.
