If you are like me and shop with coupons... really shop with coupons you have stock piled on pasta.
I found the following recipe on Mueller's website. It is easy. I'm going to write a bit different directions then they have on the website. That way if you are in a rush like I was you won't be stirring forever like I was waiting for the sauce to thicken. Also this will feed an army. I have soooo much left over.
