Heres something new.. Herbed fusilli is a treat in itself.. The creamy white sauce and tangy red sauce gives a super taste to the pasta along with these crunchy veggies and herbs.. Even if you dont like either of the 2 pastas, white or Red, you would definately love this Pink sauce pasta..

This recipe, my kids loved every bite of it....the only thing I did different is I added an extra 1 tsp spoon of mixed herbs to the pink sauce.
