Ingredients:

Serving

1/2 lb pasta in a fun shape like medium pasta shell , spirals, wheels, etc. something the cheese will cling to
1 pint ricotta cheese
1 egg
1/4 cup milk
salt and pepper
1/2 cup spaghetti sauce

Directions:

Cook pasta in salted water.
In a bowl big enough to hold everything, mix cheese with egg, salt, pepper, and enough milk to make it gloppy. Add well-drained cooked pasta and mix gently with a lifting motion to avoid mushiness.
Serve with sauce poured over and a sprinkling of freshly grated parmesan, asiago, or pecorino cheese if desired. It doesn't get much easier than this!
