Page 240 of the June 2007 Cooking Light, it originally called for peas, but I omitted those out of personal preference. I also probably doubled or tripled the garlic, doubled the red pepper, and used probably close to a full cup of reserved clam juice. Also the original called for fresh pasta, but [...]
