Emeril reminds you that there's much more to pasta than plain old macaroni with marinara sauce. Tonight he's showing you how easy it is to revive that tired pasta recipe by adding or changing just a few simple ingredients. Rigatoni oreganata with tomato sauce and breadcrumbs; Buccatini with Italian tuna and calamata olives; Potato, leek, and bacon ravioli; and Veal stuffed jumbo shells with a mushroom bechamel.
