Recently I've gone nuts for pasta w/ broccoli rabe, garlic, parmesan cheese, red pepper flakes and an overly generous amount of olive oil, salt and pepper.
It's easy because when the pasta has 5 mintues left you dump the broccoli rabe into the boiling water and it cooks along with the pasta.
It's tangy, creamy, and soooo tasty. It's not particularily good for you with all the butter and oil. but who cares?

Penne w/ good fresh ricotta, spring peas and just a little pancetta... so so good.

Sliced garlic and chopped chilli, sauteed in olive oil, with linguine tossed in at the end. Garnished with chiffonade parsley.
Or a good simple creamless carbonara, ridiculous amounts garlic included!

Same as Vanesscipes. I also am a fan of thin linguini with broccoli rabe though I throw in a tablespoon of pine nuts if I have them around. Yum!

By far Peanut Butter Pasta! Here is the recipe!
Ingredients
12 to 16 oz. pasta (any short, fun shape) or rice noodles
1/4 C. peanut butter
2 Tbs. warm water, or to taste
2 Tbs. maple syrup, or to taste
2 Tbs. teriyaki sauce, or to taste
Pinch ground ginger
Slivered sautéed vegetables, such as broccoli florets, asparagus, thinly sliced carrots, bell peppers, scallions or red onions (optional)
Crushed peanuts and/or thinly sliced scallions (optional)
Directions
Cook the pasta according to package directions. Meanwhile, in a bowl, whisk together the peanut butter and warm water. Add the maple syrup, teriyaki and ginger and whisk to combine. Taste and adjust the amount of maple syrup and/or teriyaki sauce accordingly. If a thinner sauce is desired, add more warm water, 1 Tbs. at a time, until the desired consistency is achieved. Drain the pasta and return to the pot. Add the peanut sauce and toss to coat. If desired, add the sautéed vegetables and toss again and/or sprinkle with peanuts and, for the adults, scallions. Serve warm or at room temperature.
Makes 4 servings.
