Inspired by my love of lasagna, pasta shells and seafood, I created this recipe that’s easy to make but special enough to serve company. I serve it with garlic bread and a salad.

  • 1-1/2 teaspoons seafood seasoning, divided

  • 1/4 cup all-purpose flour
  • 1/4 teaspoon coarsely ground pepper
  • 1-1/2 cups grated Parmesan cheese

DIRECTIONS :

  1. Cook pasta according to package directions.
  2. Meanwhile, in a small skillet, saute green pepper and onion in 1 teaspoon butter until tender; set aside.
