I'm gunna start this off by saying I'm a guido so I don't measure shit. But follow this simple recipe for a delicious heart healthy garlic and oil pasta dish for incredible energy and its amazing.

Step 1: chop up about 4 cloves of garlic crush some up with ur knife.

Step 2: layer the bottom of a sauce pan with extra virgin olive oil. If i had to guess id say about a half of cup.
Let oil heat up on med low (evoo smokes when too hot)

Step3: add chopped/crushed garlic to the pan important don't let the garlic turn brown reduce heat to low and let it saute for a minute or 2.

Step 4: add water. I add about a water bottles worth in mine to give it the watert
Oily consistency. Also add a little bit of garlic salt and reg or sea salt. Keep adding until u get the nice salty garlic flavor. And stir occasionaly.

You now have ur base sauce

Step 5 boil the pasta, I use fine linguine (linguini fini) or bow ties you can also substitute whole wheat pasta.

Step 6: important once you pour your sauce over the pasta garnish with basil, crushed red pep ( for a zing) and loads of parmasian cheese.

I personally add broccoli and chicken breats to it. It's healthy and delicious. Let me know if any of u try it.
