"I tried the "Lemon Temptress Pasta" by "The Pasta Queen" and it is incredibly easy and delicious! If you can find lemons with leaves, you can boil them along with the peel in step 4, they add even more lemony flavor. Another little tip: Use a large pan or a large pot, so the long noodles fit inside."
