WWGD?


What would Giada do? You know I love her. Whenever I am stumped, I think "what would Giada do?"






Lemon Spaghetti


1 pound spaghetti
2/3 cup olive oil
2/3 cup grated Parmesan
1/2 cup fresh lemon juice (about 3 lemons)
Salt and freshly ground black pepper
1 tablespoon lemon zest
1/3 cup chopped fresh basil leaves





Cook the pasta in a large pot of boiling salted water until tender but still firm to the bite, stirring occasionally, about 8 minutes. Meanwhile, whisk the oil, Parmesan, and lemon juice in a large bowl to blend.


Drain the pasta, reserving 1 cup of the cooking liquid. Toss
