Dried oregano to taste
Sea salt and pepper to taste

I'm always looking for new pasta recipes and will try this tonight.I'm the owner of Al Dente Pasta.Have you tried it? We make an amazing Whole Wheat Pasta and also Organic Farm and Field which is 1/2 Egg Fettuccine, 1/2 Wild Mushroom. Would be great with either. Love your site.
