Meaty Paleo Pasta

Meaty Paleo Pasta

So I was looking through a cookbook and I saw a few recipes that inspired me for this one.  I had seen some other recipes in some paleo cookbooks that I decided to tweak a bit.  It definitely curbed any kind of craving for pasta. This is a definite must make again.  I used the next day over eggs as well.  Enjoy!!!
