This was easy to make; I substituted the peas for mushrooms and carrots, and used spaghettini, which is why I think there wasn't enough sauce.

We all liked this a lot and it was quick and easy to put together. No one is real wild about peas in this house so I substituted with sliced fresh mushrooms that I sauteed in butter. I also used a 12 oz. can of tuna. Thanks!
