Yummy, Yummy and oh yeh, Yummy. This pasta dish is just that good. Natural sodium from the veggies and just a whole lot of incredible flavors. Bowtie pasta, Sauteed Broccoli, Roasted Cherry Tomatoes and an absolutely creamy Roasted Garlic Sauce. This recipe has it all. Sodium in the average pasta dish with any kind of cream sauce starts at 1600 mg's and 380 mg's of cholesterol. Not a heart healthy dish. My recipe has a total of 176 mg's of sodium and get this, 11 mg's of cholesterol in each serving.                       Heart Healthy, Tremendous Flavor, and Easy to Make.
