Ingredients: 3 quarts water
2 ounces (per serving) Penne or other pasta
1/2 cup (per serving) tomato sauce
1/2 ounce (per serving) Parmigiano-Reggiano (grated)
Directions: Place the water in a medium to large stockpot over high heat (depending on the amount of pasta to be cooked). When the water is boiling add the spaghetti noodles.
While the pasta is cooking place the tomato sauce in a medium (or larger) sauce pan and heat gently over medium heat. When the sauce is hot reduce the heat to low.
When the pasta is done remove the noodles using tongs allowing them to drain. Place the noodles in the sauce and toss well.
Serve hot in a large bowl topped with the grated cheese.
