So. Much. Pasta.

Here are two more:

Cook spaghetti; drain and set aside
In pasta pot, heat generous amount of olive oil
Add sage leaves; fry until almost crisp
Add fresh chopped garlic; continue to fry until sage is crisp and garlic bits are brown
Remove from heat; spaghetti back onto pot and toss. Add salt to taste.
Serve

3 ingredients (excluding salt, olive oil, and water) and it takes about 15 minutes.

My second current favorite is cous-cous. You just use whatever you have handy. You just add in butter, raisins, almond slivers (or almost any combination of fats, sugars, and protein you have in the cupboard) and cooks in 5 minutes, with no fussing or stirring. The deliciousness-to-effort ratio is insanely high.
