Some of the leftover remnants of my second marriage include mysterious bills that surface because my ex seems to have disappeared off the face of the earth, the knowledge of true Italian pasta sauce, the experience of making homemade ravioli, potato cavatelli and almond biscotti, and a little snack known as chili and noodles.

 

The combination sounds odd, but it’s actually quite good. My ex used to take a can of chili, water it down a bit, and then pour it over cooked pasta noodles such as angel hair or corkscrew pasta. I always added a touch of Romano or Parmesan cheese to boot. It’s a nice quick meal, very satisfying, and it was my lunch on another foggy day.
