My son has a thing for lemons, so I was pleased to find this recipe on Tastespotting, a food photography site.

This recipe sounded light and different—not something I would have thought of doing with spaghetti, but something simple enough for a young kid to like.

Pucker Up P’sghetti

Zest of 1/2 a lemon

1/8 cup fresh lemon juice, about 1 lemon

1/3 cup olive oil

1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese and extra for garnish

1/2 teaspoon kosher salt

1/2 pound cooked spaghetti, warm

Zest lemon into a large bowl, then whisk in lemon juice, olive oil, cheese and salt. Add spaghetti and toss to coat. Serve warm.

Serves 4.
