    This is my daughter Tonya's favorite meal. Sometimes we make it with rigatoni and call it "Riga-Tonya." Either way, it's a great, quick way to prepare your kids some yummy vegetables. �Sandra Eckert, Pottstown, Pennsylvania

    Ingredients:
    � 8 ounces uncooked gluten-free spiral pasta
    � 1 large onion, coarsely chopped
    � 1 large green or sweet red pepper, coarsely chopped
    � 1 medium zucchini, halved lengthwise and sliced
    � 1 tablespoon olive oil
    � 1 package (16 ounces) firm tofu, drained and cut into 1/2-inch cubes
    � 2 cups gluten-free meatless spaghetti sauce

    Directions:
    1. Cook pasta according to package directions. Meanwhile, in a large skillet, saute the onion, pepper and zucchini in oil until crisp-tender.

    2. Stir in tofu and spaghetti sauce; heat through. Drain pasta; serve with tofu mixture.
