Pasta with Tomato & Mozzarella

Many thanks to Zoe from Bake for Happy Kids for visiting my blog and joined as my friend. It was through her bog that I learnt about "Cook like a Star" and I am very keen to participate in this event. 

I love this recipe but I have made a little modification  to suit my family preference. The sauce is quite different from the usual tomato sauce that we used to eat with spaghetti and everyone likes the newly introduced sauce.
