Christmas Eve Confetti Pasta image

This easy Christmas dinner has become a holiday tradition in our home. All the prep is done before we attend Christmas Eve service. On returning, I just boil water and saute. It's so colorful with a tossed salad and garlic bread - and always gets raves! - Ellen Fiore, Ridgewood, New Jersey
