Let simmer over very low heat, stirring occasionally. Add sauce mixture to cooked shell noodles and mix well. Serve with
applesauce or cottage cheese. Serves: 1 Large Family!

Note: Markie loved this dish, and was always his second choice when asked for meal ideas. CAUTION : This is very filling, so unless you have a good sized appetite, I would start out with a small portion.
