Hi Deeli, this sounds yummy thanks, also check out my recipe for sesame noodles. I posted it for the no cheese pasta you also posted on. I think you will like it too!

The two magic words, Asiago Cheese. I think our DIL would eat it on ice-cream. She just discovered it about 2 years ago, but is probably responsible for a lot of its growing popularity in this neck of the woods. We'll definitely have to try these with a study group. If we tell them it's anything like pizza, they'll gobble it up in nothing flat.

Thank you Deeli.
