loved this soupy spaghetti. At my home, my husband always likes his pasta to have lots of sauce, I prefer as little sauce as I can. I think this soupy pasta is the middle ground we can both agree on.

This sounds excellent with the shrimp, but what is Birds Eye Chili? Sounds interesting!

Hey, do you want to submit this to Presto Pasta Nights this week? I am hosting and there are details on my blog. I'd love to add it to the round up on Friday, thanks!

Debbi Does Dinner Healthy....Thanks for the invite. Have sent you my entry. Bird's eye chili is a type of chili, smaller in size but much hotter than green or red chili. These are best suited for those spicy food lovers...
