Linguine Rivera

I was going through the cabinet in which I keep my cookbooks to try and straighten up all my loose recipes.  I came across one that a Weight Watchers leader had shared years ago but I had never gotten around to trying. 

What I loved about this recipe is not only is it pretty heathy, it was pretty easy to make AND everyone thought it was delicious.  That makes a recipe for a recipe that will definately make a return visit to our dinner table!
