This is a pasta dish I threw together that is light and refreshing. No heavy sauce or cheese to weigh this dish down. I feel stuffed pastas are a great way to get your pasta craving, but you get the protein as well. I never thought to use lemon in pasta but I never make pasta without it anymore. Its a great way to get your Vitamin C and gives the dish some depth.
