Spicy spaghetti with Fennel and herbs

Ash Wednesday. No meat. I tried the spaghetti with fennel and herbs and felt like I outdid myself. I did not have a red jalapeno and, in fact, did not really know what they were. I could have used a green jalapeno as a substitute, but I didn't. I had a sweet red pepper and while the spice was not as spicy, the flavors were complimentary.
