   I’ve seen that combination of pastas referred to as “la bandiera” on some menus, italian for “flag”.

   Looks to be a fabulous combo of pesto, alfredo and bolognese.

   Saluti!

   Yeah, the Italians sure love to put their flag on their food, don’t they? But no, that’s not the name of this dish. Try again!

    @jigs — Actually, it’s not spinach pasta. The green pasta is pesto. You got the carbonara right. The red pasta is penne puttanesca.

    Hint: the name has the number 3 in it.
