Fusilli With Roasted Red Pepper Sauce image

This is out of my 365 Low Fat cookbook. I haven't tried this yet, but I almost always have a jar of red peppers in the fridge. I thought this would make a good quick dinner, maybe with some grilled chicken or fish. I bet the sauce could be frozen too for make ahead dinner. If someone tries that, please let me know if it can be done!
