Meals On Monday Pasta Parmesan

ByThe Reverend Katherine

Pasta Parmesan

I often notice that the simplest meals are the best ones. This is one of our favorites. It is an easy “go to” recipe for lunch, a side dish, or in our case, a complete meal with a little crusty bread.

What You Need

8 oz. Pasta (Linguine, spaghetti or fettuccini)

1 Clove garlic (minced)

1/4 Cup olive oil

3/4 Cup Parmesan cheese (grated)

1/4 Cup Parsley (finely chopped)

Salt and pepper to taste

Pasta pot

Colander

Nonstick skillet

Before You Start: prepare pasta according to package directions, drain and place in serving bowl

Let’s Make It! Sauté garlic in olive oil in a nonstick skillet over medium heat until tender (golden) pour over pasta. Add salt and pepper, cheese and parsley and toss gently to coat.

Serves 2-4

Katie’s Tid Bits* Try adding sautéed shrimp (in garlic olive oil) or chicken to this recipe

I also wanted to share a photo of the lovely hand  painted Italian dish I served our pasta in last night. One of these days I need to write a blog to share all of my wonderful dishes with you. 🙂

Do you have a simple “go to” pasta recipe?

  2. Looks good! I do this occassionally and add a whipped raw egg to the pasta while it’s warm and then add bacon pieces to it with the parmesan cheese & pepper. My favorite pasta dish will always be one with Alfredo sauce. Stuffed tortillini with meat….love it!

  10. I’m a pasta freak and “yoodles”, as my granddaughter calls it, is something she will eat. We have it often. I just had seafood pasta this weekend!

  12. I LOVE pasta with a simple drizzle of olive oil, a dash of herbs, a (generous) sprinkle of cheese! YUM!

  17. You are so right when you say simple is sometimes the best. This is also one of my favorite dishes although I prefer pasta that is easier to deal with than long spaghetti noodles. It’s all the same just different shapes.
    I’ve waited for this week for a long time Katie. Today and 3 more to finish a career in office machines that started back in 1981. Next monday will be the strange one when I do not have to get up and deal with the hectic goings on around here. Hope you have a fabulous week.
    Huge Hugs,
    Odie

  19. This is something I make, too. Usually I’ll add some peas or other veg and if I want a little zip to it, adding a little bit of cooked ham or real bacon bits, but I have to skip the bread. It’s simple, quick, and tasty. TFS Gloria
