A Family Favorite-Linguini with White Clam Sauce

“Linguine with White Clam Sauce”

This is such a flavorful and easy clam sauce. Trust me, you will make it all the time. Of all the dishes I have made over the years, my children always remember this one being made from when they were very little. They loved it then and now! Of course, now I have to substitute gluten free pasta, but you may not have to. I also eat this over cooked spinach for myself if I want some more greens. Enjoy!
