Banff Pasta - Vegetarian - Canadian image

While on a skiing vacation to Banff, Canada we ate at a small restaurant - I think Coyote Cafe was the name - I ordered a wonderful dish of pasta...and this recipe is very close to the dish I had in Banff. I used spaghetti, you could use any pasta you prefer. If you are a vegan you could omit the cheese. This could be a side-dish or an entree. Use the best quality goat or feta cheese.

This pasta was a bit too bland for my taste. I added some extra spices and it was much better. Overall, it's a good recipe but it needs some tweaking.
