Christmas Eve Confetti Pasta
TOTAL TIME: Prep/Total Time: 25 min.
YIELD: 8 servings.
This easy Christmas dinner has become a holiday tradition in our home. All the prep is done before we attend Christmas Eve service. On returning, I just boil water and saute. It's so colorful with a tossed salad and garlic bread — and always gets raves! — Ellen Fiore, Ridgewood, New Jersey
