So I couldn't wait to share this recipe with you all I love love love that my whole family loved this one. will for sure change it up with different pasta and toss it all together next time for sure! Instead of Mrs. Dash I used a garlic based seasoning mix it was so yummy and we used turkey tenders still was very tasty. The kids said it mush be added to the family rotations for sure. Also it gave us a large amount of left over pasta which sadly will not go to waste on left over day! It may also be turned into a pasta salad for punk girls lunch one day this week.
