What a vibrant, low-calorie main dish. Bow-tie pasta cradles a sauce of tomatoes and colorful bell peppers.

I made this using large chunks of peppers instead of strips because I thought it would be easier to eat. When completed, I combined the sauce and pasta so it could be taken to work. It was good but the past absorbed some of the sauce and extra was needed. The peppers added a nice sweetness.
