Cooking Games and Pasta

Of all the various dishes to cook, pasta is one of the easiest. There are so many different styles of pasta available, and they are all delicious. Often cooking pasta is as simple as throwing a handful of dry noodles into boiling water. The noodles cook for less than ten minutes and then we all have a delicious lunch. Of course, the success of your pasta cooking games depends rather heavily on the type of sauce you decide to use.

Many types of pasta are delicious with a bit of pure butter tossed into the pan. Or for a bit of extra flavor you can use some garlic butter and sprinkle on Parmesan. If you're feeling a bit more adventurous, using a canned or jarred sauce is simple, but the best sauces are those that you create at home. This doesn't have to be a challenge - it's usually as simple as cutting up some veggies, throwing them in a pan with spices and allowing it to all boil down a bit. The end product is a meal fit for a king! Or at least a hungry teenager.
