Single Lady Pasta

Directions:

Cook a box of your favorite pasta to perfect al dente (this is very important)
Drain and pile on your plate however much you desire (return what’s left to the pot and save for others or yourself)
Top with a decent glug of olive oil and don’t be shy with the Parmesan cheese. If serving to my children or me when I need the ultimate comfort food this is where you stop. If you’re looking for the full Single Lady Pasta experience, continue to step 4.
Top with additional seasoning: Italian seasoning, oregano, basil, salt, or red pepper flakes. Add a bit more Parmesan cheese and enjoy. If you’re looking for Single Man Pasta, continue to step 5.
Pan-grill some shrimp and add to pasta (possibly with a squeeze of lemon). No extra cheese required at this point.
