Ingredients:

Serving

1 lb rigatoni pasta or 1 lb other pastas
3 cups garlic-flavored croutons (store bought , about 5 oz)
1/4 cup slivered almonds, toasted (1 oz)
1 cup julienned roasted red pepper (store bought)
1/2 cup extra virgin olive oil ( more if needed , less if too much, original called for 3/4 cup)
2 tsp italian seasoning (more if wanted )
fresh parsley (to garnish )

Directions:

Bring large pot of salted water to a boil over high heat.
Add the pasta and cook until tender but still firm to the bite, stirring occasionally, about 8-10 minutes.
Drain pasta into a large bowl.
Place the croutons, Italian Seasoning, and the almonds in a food processor.
Pulse until it becomes the texture of bread crumbs.
Add the croutons and almond mixture to the hot pasta.
Add the peppers and olive oil(sparingly to begin with - this way you may need less which is healthier!).
Add parsley and toss to combine.
Serve with a mixed green salad with a nice vinaigrette and hot bread or maybe better yet garlic bread.
