A Canyon Cafe recipe. Note: Pico de gallo is a combination of chopped fresh tomatoes, cilantro, onions, garlic and peppers to taste. Add a splash of lime juice and a dash of salt. If you don't have time to make pico de gallo, substitute chopped fresh tomatoes. This topping adds tremendously to the finished dish.

  • Use a good quality Parmesan cheese: Parmesan cheese is a key ingredient in many pasta dishes. Make sure to use a good quality Parmesan cheese that is grated fresh.
  • Add some spice: If you like spicy food, you can add some red pepper flakes or chili peppers to your pasta. This will give it a nice kick of heat.
  • Garnish your pasta: Before serving, garnish your pasta with fresh herbs, such as basil, parsley, or oregano. This will add a pop of color and flavor to your dish.
