This pasta dish is a great way to use up leftover roasted red peppers. It's also a great way to get your kids to eat their vegetables!

This pasta dish was amazing! The red pepper puree gave it a beautiful pink color and a slightly sweet flavor. The sauce was creamy and flavorful, and the pasta was cooked perfectly al dente.
