Pasta

20250620 #breakfastdiary 1427, 23°C/rain According to British psychologist Cliff Arnall, the third Friday of June is supposedly the happiest day of the year — good weather, vacation just around the corner, low stress. But that sounds like someone else's story, some other country's story. With my mind scattered every which way, here's a One Plate Pasta, about 800kcal, that dramatically cuts down on dishwashing while still keeping all the flavor — and above all, showing off some very Instagrammable, colorful noodles!

Pasta (a generous single serving), 1 egg yolk, 1t minced garlic, chopped parsley, 3T olive oil, salt, pepper, a little grana padano cheese

1. Boil the pasta in salted water. 2. On a plate, combine 1 egg yolk, 1t minced garlic, chopped parsley, 3T olive oil, salt, pepper, and a splash of pasta water, and mix evenly. Grate some grana padano cheese on top. 3. Add the cooked pasta and toss well. Top with a little more cheese.
