Or do you have a pasta recipe that you would like to share?

My favorite is spaghetti with olive oil and garlic. It's my go-to dish for something quick and easy. With a little salad, you've got an awesome meal. Here's Chef John's take on it:

GARLIC BUTTER SHRIMP PASTA

INGREDIENTS:
8 ounces fettuccine
1 pound medium shrimp, peeled and deveined
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper, to taste
8 tablespoons (1 stick) unsalted butter, divided
4 cloves garlic, minced
1/2 teaspoon dried oregano
1/2 teaspoon crushed red pepper flakes
2 cups baby arugula
1/4 cup freshly grated Parmesan
2 tablespoons chopped fresh parsley leaves
DIRECTIONS:
In a large pot of boiling salted water, cook pasta according to package instructions; drain well.
Season shrimp with salt and pepper, to taste; set aside.
Melt 2 tablespoons butter in a large skillet over medium high heat. Add garlic, oregano and red pepper flakes, and cook, stirring frequently, until fragrant, about 1-2 minutes.
Add shrimp and cook, stirring occasionally, until pink, about 2-3 minutes; set aside.
Melt remaining 6 tablespoons butter in the skillet. Stir in pasta, arugula and Parmesan until arugula begins to wilt, about 2 minutes. Stir in shrimp.
Serve immediately, garnished with parsley, if desired.

Garlic Butter Shrimp Pasta

I make it with Angel Hair (quicker and easier to cook) and broccoli or spinach instead of the arugula.

Easy to make and very tasty.

The mayor of Bologna, Italy may be appalled, but spaghetti with meat sauce and meatballs. Lasagna is also good. My favorite recipe is Stouffer's. Razz

I see what you did there...



My favorite pasta dish can't be bought. It was family tradition back when I was a kid and when grandpa was alive that Thanksgiving dinner was cheese ravioli...grandpa made it from scratch. He then took the leftover dough and made these thick, chewy blobs of pasta, cooked to a PERFECT al dente chewy goodness. We called them chew-chews. The sauce (not gravy) was awesome, as well as the meatballs and sausage. Grandpa and Grandma are gone and we'll never have that again. As a side note, my mother's lasagna and meatballs are pretty much off the hook...



"If you’re a leader, you lead the way. Not just on the easy ones; you take the tough ones too…” – MAJ Richard D. Winters (1918-2011), E Company, 2nd Battalion, 506th Parachute Infantry Regiment, 101st Airborne

"Woe to those who call evil good, and good evil... Therefore, as tongues of fire lick up straw and as dry grass sinks down in the flames, so their roots will decay and their flowers blow away like dust; for they have rejected the law of the Lord Almighty and spurned the word of the Holy One of Israel." - Isaiah 5:20,24

Quick - A cajun chicken alfredo with sun dried tomatoes.
All day to cook - A home made lasagna with home made meatballs.

It’s been years ago, the family would go to a small Italian bar/restaurant near Chicago Circle campus. The simplest thing, shells with broccoli was just crazy good. Shells, broccoli, oil, garlic, a bit of parmigiana.

It was simply impossible to order something you didn’t love more than the last thing.

I agree with Shugart.

I might even mash in some anchovies, maybe throw in a handful of sun-dried tomatoes (both optional), but the oil and garlic are the essential ingredients.

My stomach doesn't do well on tomato sauces or strong garlic.

I often make Pasta da nada (Loosely translated: "pasta with nothing")
Cook pasta al dente in boiling water.
Drain.
Add a little butter.

Jim, I think I'm going to make that in the next few days. That video really got my juices flowing! I might add some shrimp though.

It's hard to imagine that shrimp could be a bad thing, but it's wonderful just by itself. Plenty of cheese and fresh parsley are required.

Another vote for the chicken alfredo but the shrimp alfredo isn't any slouch either.
