1 teaspoon dried oregano powder

Instructions

Cook the pasta according to the package instructions, drain the water and keep aside.

Add the bell pepper mixture to the pasta (with the sauce) and mix well. Heat for another 1 minute so everything is blended well and the bell pepper pasta is ready to serve! Enjoy the easy, healthy and yummy bell pepper pasta for a delicious vegetarian lunch, brunch or dinner!
