    When I was growing up spaghetti was mixed into our weekly rotation of dinners every week or two.  It was most often accompanied by homemade meatballs, a delicious meal that my mom could whip up and have the family eating and smiling in record time.  I used the term spaghetti as a catch-all for linguini, angel-haired pasta and even very different Italian dishes like rigatoni and lasagna.  Basically if it was Italian food and not pizza, I called it spaghetti (although very much incorrect it was a term of endearment!).  I didn't really venture into eating seafood with pasta until I was in my late teens when I tried it at a few different restaurants.  I then wondered why I had waited so long.  Obviously the seafood tasted completely different from the meats and veggies I was accustomed to eating with pasta, but the light sauces that accompanied them were so fresh and light.  I had assumed that it was very tricky to make, but in actuality it is just about as simple to prepare as the pasta and meat dishes I had growing up.  

     Seafood Pasta with Garlic and Sun-Dried Tomatoes

    For this type of recipe it is really all about your personal taste rather than following the measurements or even ingredient list to a T.  I love garlic and depending on the day may add an extra clove in, or double-up on the quantity of sun dried tomatoes or onions.  Where I purchase my seafood they have a nice mix with two of my favorites, mussels and clams.  This recipe would work just fine with only one of the two, or a different seafood entirely.  In summary just have fun with this one and make it your own by experimenting with this one.  Cooking and baking are very different and not too much can go wrong by adding or removing an ingredient listed below.
