Spaghetti

[KDENISE977]

Am I the only one who thinks its a punishable crime to serve spaghetti without appropriate bread ? Husband wants spaghetti but won't go get decent bread. outing:

I prefer salad with spaghetti instead of bread, but kids think garlic bread or garlic breadsticks are a vital part to the complete spaghetti experience and ignore the salad.

I don't understand spaghetti with bread. You already have a starch with the pasta - why do you need bread?

I feel the same, but I do have a salad with mine

Why didn't you grab it on your way home from work?

Although the spaghetti/garlic bread combo is one of the best flavor combinations in life, the carb blitz will land you on the couch unable to move if you eat them together.

I always have spaghetti, 2 meatballs and plenty of grated cheese. If I'm going to have garlic bread too, I lessen the amount of spaghetti and only use the bread to sop up the sauce at the end...

If I need garlic bread, I take whatever bread I have on hand (stale is good) and butter it and garlic powder it and put in toaster oven. Viola....garlic bread.

I was already home when he decided he'd like spaghetti. I will toast some dinner rolls with a garlic spread I suppose.

I could honestly skip the pasta all together.

 

[KDENISE977]

Guess I'm the only one. Lol.

And when I asked my husband what he wanted instead of bread he said steak. :-/

IS, did a double take on this one earlier, could have sworn it said to sop up the gravy. Was gonna say have never had spaghetti with gravy.

Its probably something from when you grew up. It is nice to have but redundant. Still... it's all good!

Spagetti in my house:

Girl has whole wheat noodles with lots of cheese, no sauce.

I have sauce and garlic bread, no noodles.

 

[withrespect]

My husband is the same way with the bread ...

FYI... "Gravy" and "sauce" are interchangeable amoung Italians... a lot of the time we call sauce "Sunday Gravy"...
