I would like to hear what you all put on your pasta. I'm actually allergic to tomatoes, so I can't use the typical tomato-based, store bought pasta sauce. I enjoy throwing some seasoning (Jane's Crazy Mixed Up Salt is my fav!) and...

kalyani1234 Thanks Belinda! Ha ha ha! That is quite a joke, you will have to plant a lot of Basil around the house to repel mosquitoes! But jokes apart, believe me, it works. Additionally, you may want to add Lemon grass(Cymbopogon), Marigolds and Geraniums...
