Well since I'm Italian, naturally I eat a lot of dishes that contain pasta...

Gravy and meatballs
Zucchini soup
Chicken soup
Spaghetti and sauce
Lasagna
Stuffed shells
etc.

And for those who aren't familiar with "gravy" when it comes to Italian food, its another
term for tomato sauce :)

Zucchini soup sounds good.....I love minestrone though :)

mmmm sort of, but not really...
 
Okay...but could you kindly elaborate on what "gravy" is in terms of Italian vernacular? :)

hrmm, well - Italian gravy is indeed 'sauce' based, therefore; it is dark in color unlike 'other' gravy's which are more 'cream' colored. It has a totally different taste from other gravy's and sauce. It is hard to describe unless I give you a recipe, which I wouldn't do since it is a family recipe which has been passed down from generation to generation...

that I understand....I don't expect you or anyone to give away a family recipe here at all.....
 
When I'm eating solo, I actually tend to eat pasta alot. And I'm low maintenance when I cook it myself. I quite like the capillini noodles with a pesto parmesan sauce lightly mixed in. Sometimes I'll grill a little fish to go with it, but it's basic and yummy.

Very seldom when I'm eating out do I order pasta though.

Mmmm I love 'fra diavolo'
 
I couldn't live without pasta!

I love it fairly plain, either simple spaghetti napoli or spaghetti aglio e olio.

With very good parmigiano. Buono!
