A happy mash-up of two beloved Italian pastas that happen to mesh beautifully together. Feel free to sub any long noodle you like, as well as green cabbage for the red. Mild sausage works just as well.

Okay, so I often call for 3/4 pound of pasta in my recipes, as I tend to cook/write recipes for four people and that’s just the right amount of pasta for most recipes. A pound tends to make things too “pasta heavy” and I like a ratio of more half pasta to half other things (veggies, proteins, etc.). So! I cordon off about 1/4 pf each bag or box of pasta that I’m cooking with and then package that back up, waiting until I’ve got another 3/4-pound’s worth and then away we go again, ad infinitum.Â
