Expert Tips

Cater to kids! Use the fun shaped pastas they like, such as wagon wheel, bow tie, corkscrew or the novelty shapes found at specialty food shops.

Like it spicy? Use a medium or hot variety of salsa to wake up those taste buds.

Serve in shallow bowls, and arrange tortilla chips around the rim of each bowl. Top with a dollop of sour cream and a sprinkle of chopped cilantro for extra Southwest flair.
