Recipe Notes

If the sauce seems a little thin to you, you can add some arrowroot or non GMO cornstarch to thicken it up. This meal should keep in the fridge for a week.

UPDATE: After some feedback, I have altered this recipe a bit. It now calls to add the spaghetti when there is only 20 minutes left in the cooking process.
