This pasta sauce works as a pizza sauce too! My mom gave me the recipe. It's quick and easy to make and can be doubled or tripled. Substitute other cheeses and herbs for variety.
Appetizer Mussels
What timing! Although I have eaten mussels many times, October 17 was the very first time I cooked them, and (if I do say so myself!) they were great. A friend and I ate every last one, and he raved about the flavor the whole time. This is my own recipe.
