Pasta, hold the eggs.

Everyone loves pasta. We especially love egg based pasta. But what if you are short on eggs or need a special diet. this is the answer. Pasta without eggs is generally known as trenette. It is quick and easy to fix, the dough is much more flexible in terms of storage than egg pasta. You can feed a whole lot of people on eggless noodles relatively inexpensively.  Win-Win situation.

One thing I did not realise till later is that eggless noodles are great for camping trips and barbecues.  They cook fast and nothing to refrigerate. Flour, water, salt, cooking oil, and a pot then you are in business. A can of pre-made sauce will really make things nice.

A bag of flour and water and you can almost make anything. I know some pwople who make it in thick chunks to make pretend meat.
