Looping with a dictionary

Your recipe scaler is coming together! You have a dictionary called recipe that contains ingredient names as keys and their quantities in grams as values for your tomato and basil pasta. Now you need to scale all the quantities by a factor of 2 to serve more guests at your party. You'll loop through the dictionary items and calculate the scaled quantities.
