Used to carry a pack of tums with me at all times until someone told me they cause kidney stones... now I just deal with the heartburn

You know that you have other options to deal with heartburn, right?

A whole Italian world of stuff exists besides red/white sauce on pasta. The condiments (pasta toppings) could fill an encyclopedia.

I try to cook seasonally, especially Italian influence dishes, so right now, I’m cooking down eggplant, onions, and garlic into a thick, clingy topping. It is great with small shapes to catch and hold the semi chunky eggplant.

Or try this: cut up a head of broccoli into small florets, blanch, and combine in a big bowl with whole milk ricotta, a bit of (real) grated Parmesan, and black pepper: toss with hot cooked pasta until blended.

If you want to broaden your pasta horizons, this is an excellent cookbook with legit modern Italian flavors and combinations: LINK

I know the feeling. She's a picky eater and I'm not so that means I'm now a picky eater if we don't want to cook twice.
