Don't go into this expecting it to taste like basic pasta and you will enjoy it. Otherwise put all the basic pasta things on it, and go crazy. The first dish I made with it was "antipasto pasta salad", which is an oxymoron but add some olives, sweet onion, smoked and regular cheeses, pieces of salami, sundried tomatoes, artichoke hearts. Throw a light lemon/garlic dressing on it, and it's SO good.
