Pasta Shell With Mascarpone and Roasted Red Bell Pepper

Hey All!!! It's pasta time.....Again. I love pasta in any form fresh or dried. I always have different varieties of pastas in my pantry. I crave for stuffed pastas like Ravioli and Tortelline. Usually, spinach and cheese are most common and popular fillings for the pasta. I like my pasta 'al dente. Only store-bought dried pasta can be cooked 'al dente'.Tamato-based sauces are the most popular. Pasta can be made with any vegetables, cheeses, meats, and even with fish. They are also very good with any kinds of beans and lentils.

In this recipe, I combined my favorite flovers; like sweet and smoky roasted bell peppers, nutty lentils, creamy Mascarpone cheese, buttery parmesan cheese, salty black olives, spicy red pepper flakes, and fruity olive oil. I also used my favorite shape Shell pasta also known as Conchiglie pasta. I am almost sure everyone will love this as much as I do.
