      Pasta
      Leftover pasta (any kind)? Use what’s left for the following recipe.

      Pasta with Creamy Tomato Sauce
      2 tsp olive oil
      2 cloves garlic, crushed
      1 cup tomatoes, seeded, finely diced
      1-1/2 cups evaporated skim milk
      1 tsp marjoram
      pepper, to taste, ground
      2 3/4 cups cooked pasta
      In a skillet over medium high heat, heat the oil. Add the garlic and sauté for 30 seconds. Add the tomato and sauté for 2 minutes.

      Add the evaporated milk and stir constantly over medium heat until thickened. Add the marjoram and pepper. Pour the sauce over the pasta and serve.

      6 servings = about 215 calories.
      wanna shake it up a bit? add canned chicken or shrimp!

      Do you think diced canned tomatoes would work well in this recipe if they were drained? Fresh tomotoes have their own liquid so you might want to reserve some of the drained juice. Always have canned tomatoes on hand but not always the fresh.

      Everything else seems pretty standard pantry items. Recipe sounds good. Thanks.
