Pasta Spirals with Pepperoni and Tomato

First, this is from the Complete Pasta Cookbook. It is my first recipe from there. I made it.
Second, I didn't do anything to "lighten" it up, but I'm sure you can. Third, the portions are HUGE! So you probably could make this 6 servings easily (10 points). Fourth, it needed cheese but you know...that's why I'm here to begin with.

So I made this. Start the pasta water before anything else. It was pretty easy to make
