It ads texture, some protien and pairs well with any non red sauce (the worst of the sauces)
>why aren't you doing [totally insane thing no one has ever done]Where does this board come up with this shit
actuallyegg noodles + mashed potatoes + gravy is a pretty great combinationa thanksgiving leftovers slop bowl of these topped with turkey, and maybe some stuffing is pretty god tier
>>22281888Looks like somebody's never stumbled into the pantry of a dead man on low income. Tune in next time for corn pops in spaghetti o's.>>22281984Completely different but sounds alright.
>>22281868Then why don't you have an image that's evidence of YOU doing it?FUck off, OP. You don't do that either. You just made it up.
>>22281868>mashed potato flakes>protien wheat has a little more protein than potato. there are some dishes that mix wheat and potato like gnocchi so it's not entirely unheard of. i like pasta with chickpeas if you actually want more protein.
>>22281984I went to Amish Country one time and they had this exact dish as their main seller, it was fantastic.Lotta carbs.
>>22281868parmesan does the same thing while tasting better
if u want texture add panko
I like these. you could add potatoes flakes I guess. I sometimes add more cheese at the end. as far as potato pasta I would just use gnocchi
I've been using floury potatoes to thicken my soups for years. I thought this was normal.
>>22281868it just doesnt fit right
>>22281868Pasta e Patate is an authentic Italian dish, every Italian enjoys pasta with potatoes, cheese, garlic, herbs. Why not? Potatoes and cheese are good. Pasta and cheese is good. Why not mix them together? Maybe add a little bacon, some black pepper....Buon appetito!
