I love pasta too much ;.;

I find that chick pea pasta is a pretty good substitute, but it's just not quite right for pasta aglio e olio.

On the topic of easy pasta dishes, I find carbonara pretty easy to make. The only tricky bits are you got to cut up the bacon and fry it and separate one egg yolk from its white.

Have you ever tried making it the authentic way, with prosciutto* and whatever the hell else goes in it? I hear it's not really worth the expenditure or effort for the result.

*EDIT: Guanciale. Whatever it's actually called.
