Spicy Garlic Lime Pasta

This recipe is the new rave on The Nest board. As soon as I saw the recipe I knew I had to make it. I am glad we tried it, but it was just not in our taste buds, it was horrible we didn't have to do plan B, but all we tasted was lime, no garlic, or spices. Overall we weren't impressed :-(
