Following that, linguine, then fetticini (spelling?). IMO, it's the sauce, not the pasta that really makes the dish. Lemon pepper cream, alfredo, and just EVOO with capers are amongst my favorite.

I think my favorite dish is the Spicy Shrimp and Chicken...Shrimp and Chicken sauteed in spicy romano cream sauce with green onions, sundried tomatoes and mushrooms.

I looooooveeee past too it's about the only thing I eat ...okay well and bread and rice but same thing. Absolute favorite is a home made cheese sauce over elbows ...for some reason I dont really like spaghetti and really dont like angel hair....I think it's cause I never liked my moms spaghetti sauce . Great ....NOW I'm hungry ....wanders off for second breakfast ^_^ [hr width='40%']"Has someone taken your faith? It's real, the pain you feel. The life, the love, You die to heal.

Theresa_M Moderator Queen of Zoom Posts: 3649 Kudos: 4280 Votes: 790 Registered: 04-Jan-2004	I am a pasta addict Every day that the spouse isn't here my main meal is pasta based...tomato sauce, various salad dressings, salsa, cheese sauce, veggie and/or meat sauce with whatever is here. I usually make spaghetti. My kids like it as well because they think it's the kind of pasta adults eat (maybe because of the difficulty?). The spouse likes shapes for some reason. And I once worked with a woman who wouldn't eat spaghetti of any types because she said it reminded her of worms So what's your choice? ~~~~~~~~~~~~ There is water at the bottom of the ocean

Calilasseia Ultimate Fish Guru Panda Funster Posts: 5496 Kudos: 2828 Votes: 731 Registered: 10-Feb-2003	My middle name is Garfield. If there is one Italian dish I absolutely adore, it's Lasagne. To quote Garfield from one of the cartoons: "I can eat lasagne until it's dribbling out of my ears". There's a restaurant in Liverpool that used to serve a truly rapture-inducing duck lasagne. Pieces of duck breast marinated in Cointreau and served between pasta layers in a sauce flavoured with Cointreau and Calvados. Lovely. Only thing is, I think they've stopped serving it. (sigh).

Babelfish Administrator Small Fry with Ketchup Posts: 6833 Kudos: 8324 Votes: 1570 Registered: 17-Apr-2003	Uggg Theresa, that sounds like the "spaghetti" we get at the office sometimes. Persians make great rice ...but not so good with the pasta dishes . Spaghetti is always with a cup or two of oil, a extra small size can of tomato paste and maybe one cut tomato, lots of ground beef and pepper....potato or pita bread is placed on the bottom of the pot (rice cooker) to turn crispy while everything cooks :%)....I posted a pic of the layer of oil left on a plate in chat once ^_^[hr width='40%']"Has someone taken your faith?

I don't eat as much pasta as I used to. I wish...... Italian background so pasta is very important, is at every family gathering. EVERY gathering and more than one type. Essential! ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ ~~~ My fish blow kisses at me all day long ~~~

Cup_of_Lifenoodles Fish Guru Posts: 2755 Kudos: 1957 Votes: 30 Registered: 09-Sep-2004	You can't eat carbs? Why not--are you allergic to starch? One of my teachers is; he eats matza with everything. I feel for him. Also, in case anyone didn't know, Atkins passed away clinically overweight, so whatever.

Stormy Big Fish Posts: 357 Kudos: 606 Votes: 81 Registered: 13-Mar-2004	*"Three cheers for carbs! Down with Atkins!"* I could not agree more! I am not on the Atkins diet (think he was an idiot), but because of my intolerance to carbs, I have to eat almost none! I miss them, but it is either be sick, or be healthy. I eat to live, I don't live to eat... Last edited by Stormy5 at 19-May-2005 20:09
