ALMOST AS SIMPLE PASTA WITH PARMESAN, HERBS, AND FRESH GARLIC
Another family favorite that lends itself to easy variations -- tweak the taste to complement the day's main dish by your choice of herbs. You probably have all these ingredients handy in your pantry and refrigerator. I swear the kids would eat this every day if I'd make it that often. I can't personally vouch for freezing it, but I know that it reheats well in the microwave after being refrigerated. Cooking time is mainly cooking the pasta.

SIMPLE PASTA WITH PARMESAN
Another stupidly simple side dish made from pantry staples that my family asks for over and over. The savory combination of flavors goes well with many other foods. It can be made with freshly-cooked pasta or with leftover, cooked pasta that has no sauce on it. I've included options for some variations to create not-so-simple but extremely tasty side dishes or complete, one-dish meals by adding ingredients you probably have on hand.

Steps:
- Put pasta into a microwavable dish large enough to give you a little room for stirring and tossing.
- Dot pasta with butter or drizzle with olive oil.
- Sprinkle Parmesan over top. Add plenty of fresh-ground, black pepper.
- Heat in microwave on high 3 to 5 minute at a time, stirring frequently, until thoroughly hot.
- Serve, passing the pepper grinder at the table.
- You can add 1-2 cups of cooked meat (chicken, turkey, and ham are all especially good), and/or 1-3 cups pre-cooked, chopped vegetables. I particularly recommend broccoli, zucchini, onions, and/or green, snap, or snow peas.
GARLIC PASTA
Pasta with herbs, delicious sauteed garlic, and plenty of freshly grated Parmesan cheese. Chop the garlic so that some is minced and some is larger pieces. You can substitute 1 tablespoon Italian seasoning blend for the fresh herbs.

Tips:
- Use high-quality ingredients, especially the Parmesan cheese and olive oil. Fresh herbs and garlic will also make a big difference in the flavor of the dish.
- Don't overcook the pasta. Cook it until it is al dente, or slightly firm to the bite. This will help it hold its shape and prevent it from becoming mushy.
- Reserve some of the pasta cooking water before draining the pasta. This water can be used to help create a creamy sauce and add flavor to the dish.
- Add the Parmesan cheese and herbs to the pasta while it is still hot. This will help the cheese melt and the herbs will release their flavor.
- Serve the pasta immediately, garnished with additional Parmesan cheese and herbs.

This simple pasta dish is a delicious and versatile meal that can be enjoyed for lunch or dinner. It is easy to make and can be customized to your liking. With a few simple ingredients and a little bit of time, you can create a flavorful and satisfying pasta dish that will please everyone at the table.
