"From "Fat Free Pasta Recipes". My friend Rob loves to cook and he excels at it. He stays away from carbs and it shows. I thought about him when I first saw this recipe because he always tells people to use oats instead of bread crumbs. This is a great recipe for a few different categories: meatless diets, hot & spicy lovers and perfect for using the leftovers to throw together a quick tasty sandwich!"
