Meatless again? Not even on purpose this time!

After being without power much of the day, I decided tonight's dinner would be simple.  No last minute trips to the store, nothing too strenuous; just easy and light, and yummy.  Wednesday is pasta day around here, and I have a tendency to get wrapped up in tomato-based sauces - they're my favorite.  But this recipe (from Joy of Cooking, of course) is light and healthy and has loads of great flavor. The recipe calls for linguine or tagliatelle, but I had angel hair pasta on hand, and it was just fine.  As my pasta was cooking, I ran hot water into a large serving dish, to heat it just a little, then rubbed the inside of it with a cut garlic clove to add just a hint of garlicky goodness.  A few tablespoons of extra virgin olive oil, a generous amount of basil and oregano and a palmful of grated Parmesan, and it was ready to receive the angel hair pasta, plus a little of the cooking water.  Toss it all together, season to taste with salt and pepper, and voila! Main dish is done.  A simple side salad and crusty garlic bread, and we stuffed ourselves once again. :)
