It's 5:00 Do You Know Where your Angel Hair Pasta is?

Oily Pasta certainly would not be the name I would call a delicious meal, but for many years my mother-in-law prepared this meal for her husband and being the gratious son-in-law would eat every bit.

I can remember my father telling me stories of what he ate when he was young, so this falls into the category of making due with what you have and being happy.

None-the-less, it is tasty to my father-in-law and he loves it when Chris cooks up a batch. As for me, I have not quite acquired the taste, but then I'll eat just about anything.

My mother-in-law called it "Oliolio", translation... Olive Oil Angel Hair Pasta!

However, in our quest to find meals that are traditional and tasty, we found a bit more information and cooked up a meal or two. So, after you have tried this recipe, select Aglio e Olio from our menu.
