Lemon Garlic Pasta is amazing with chicken or shrimp, but sometimes I prefer it by itself or as a side dish.
Oh, who am I kidding? I eat this as my main course all the time! PASTA FOR LIFE!
Ingredients:
- 8 oz pasta (your choice, I used thin spaghetti)
- 1/4 cup olive oil
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- 2T crushed red pepper
- 2T lemon juice
- 2T parsley

This would be so good with Crispy Chicken Cutlets and some Chip Chip Cookies
