My wife won't eat pasta at all.

So I cook up a massive sauce pan of "gravy" (garlic, onion, crushed red in olive oil then add quality canned tomatoes and cook down. Use the water from boiling pasta to thin as it thickens and tomatoes melt).

Kid #1 gets penne with the gravy and shaved parm
Kid #2 gets angel hair with gravy and shaved parm
Wife and I get quinoa with roasted zuchini out of the garden, topped with the gravy and no parm (we're watching lactose intake).

All were happy at the end of the night and cleanup was a bitch.

Geez. I think one kid would learn to like the other pasta.
