Difficulty: Moderately Easy
Instructions
Things You'll Need:
- 1/2 lb. long pasta
- 1/2 cup gorgonzola or quality blue cheese
- 1 tbsp. olive oil
- 1 or 2 cloves garlic, minced
- 1/2 onion (optional)
- Large pot
- Frying pan or skillet
- Water
-
Step 1
Boil pasta as instructed on packaging and drain.
-
Step 2
Heat olive oil on medium heat in skillet. Add onions (if using) and saute, stirring, for 10 minutes. Otherwise, scrape in the minced garlic and stir.
-
Step 3
After one minute, add boiled pasta to the pan. It's okay if there's a little water still clinging to it. Immediately toss in gorgonzola and stir gently about 5 minutes, until gorgonzola melts into the oil-and-garlic-coated pasta. If you like the blue cheese thinner, you can melt in some butter as well.

Step 4
Remove from pan and serve with freshly ground pepper. Sprinkle with fresh, chopped parsley if desired.
