I am going to try this again, but will be using a thinner pasta and olive oil instead of butter. Something just didn't seem right to me and I really think it was the use of butter.

Fresh-tasting, light and delicious! Instead of butter, I tossed the pasta with a little olive oil, a very healthy fat. This is the perfect summer meal!

This is so delicious, I did omit the butter though. Less fat intake. I also added fresh basil to the dish.
