This was very good. Everyone liked it. I didn't use the oil since I'm on weight watchers core and would have to count points for it. I used fat free yogurt and I also used whole wheat egg noodles for the bow ties. I think this would be very good with chicken in it and when I mentioned it to the family they all agreed that next time I try it that way. I think I will also try it with fresh dill rather than basil just to shake it up a bit. This recipe really is open to so many variations. Thank for posting this great, easy recipe. UPDATE: I added chicken that I seasoned lightly, broiled and then pulled into strips and I replaced the basil with dill. It was very good with the changes, next time I'll try oregano. Thanks again.

The recipe can be adjusted to meet the needs of a Solo Cook or the desires of two lovers. While the Farfalle Bow Tie Pasta was cooking ( about 12 minutes ) I placed the chopped garlic glove and fresh basil in a pasta bowl and covered with the olive oil. Just before adding the drained pasta, I added the yogurt and stired to make a sauce. After the pasta was tossed in the sauce, I added the salt, and the two peppers, tossed again and topped with the cheese. I will definitely make this again.

WOW! This was simply out of this world, and I couldn't believe how easy it was! I scaled down to 1 serving and omitted the olive oil because I didn't really think it was necessary. I'm glad I did, because this was "creamy" without being heavy. I used garlic powder because that's all I had, but I bet this tastes even more fantastic with fresh garlic! Thanks for a wonderful dish, Inez... I'm going to make this a LOT!
