Even if it makes the pee smell, you have to admit it tastes damn good.
This is what I made for lunch. It was so good that I just HAD to take a photo of it. Now, I'm not one for recipes but I'll give you a basic idea... Fettucine and asparagus boiled in the same pot (gives the pasta the most delish flavor) then add olive oil, pasta water, fresh chopped tomatoes, feta, goat cheese, pinenuts, herbs and salt and pepper. Simple. And yet... divine.
Eating this way for lunch is magical for me and one of my favorite things about working from home. It sends me to Italy, even if just for 30 minutes, and not just because "Cucina Italia" is written on the bottom of my pasta bowls. It takes me back to the Med, to the seaside cafes where I sat and ate, drank wine, and felt the mist of the surf against my face. It brings back so many memories from my time there that I cherish as much as I cherish the food itself.
Viva Italia.

That is an awesome idea and so simple that I simply must smack myself on the forehead for not thinking about it before your post, flavoring pasta while it boils. I simply must experiment now!
