Expert Tips

Having trouble finding bow-tie pasta? Penne or rotelle will work in a pinch.

To toast almonds, heat oven to 350°F. Spread evenly in ungreased shallow pan. Bake uncovered 3 to 5 minutes, stirring occasionally, until light brown.

10 spoon review!!! Wasn't sure about all these ingredients mixed together but decided to try it anyway. SOOOO GOOOD! Used my mint I have growing, and what melon I had on hand which was Honeydew and I think it made it a sweeter version. Very light and flavorful. Great for summer. Can't wait till my next potluck or BBQ. This is what I'll bring. I'm sure it will be a hit and everybody will want the recipe.
