Use any shape of pasta, fusilli, rigatoni pasta work well
Allow upto 50-80 gm of pasta per person per serving. For dinner, I usually prefer it on the lower side at 50-60 gm. For lunch, I serve 80-90 gm of pasta per person per serving
Use any coloured bell pepper green, red, orange. I used yellow bell pepper for a mix of colours yellow from the bell pepper, red from cherry tomatoes and green from spinach and basil
Use any kind of herb you like in place of smoked paprika, anything that enhances the flavour. Make the pasta your own
Grate regular cheese if you do not get parmesan or skip it entirely
Skip butter and add 1 tbsp of olive oil in total and skip parmesan cheese to make the pasta vegan
