Recipe Share - Spaghetti Aglio

I have told you before, I shamelessly steal my recipes from anywhere and everywhere. I do not have a creative bone in my body when it comes to food, so I'm always scouring for new ideas. 

 

I like to give credit to the folks I steal from. I got this one from YUMsugar. They show it as a vegan recipe. I am not a vegan - or even a vegetarian for that matter. I plan on adding chicken or shrimp to my version, but this is an easy, light, healthy summer meal to share.
