My family loves this dish. It's a classic and uses an herb that grows year after year in my yard--purple sage. Any culinary sage will do--the ones with the large velvety leaves. Don't use Russian sage or Pineapple Sage. Stick with the basic sages. We like short pasta with this, and often use Orecchiete or Bow Tie pasta. You've got to use real butter, but you could use pre-shredded or pre-grated Parmesan cheese to save time. My son loves it!

- Cook the pasta in boiling, salted water in a large stockpot until al dente.
