>he's never had fresh pasta that isn't made with egg
Shameful.

Indeed. There's Neapolitan-style pasta with zucchine. Naples makes a number of egg-thickened sauces, which is why I've always thought that, despite Rome being famed for it, carbonara is of Neapolitan origin (though I've no proof of that).
Pic related is Neapolitan pasta with zucchine.

You joke, but carbonara is actually based on a class of seldom-eaten-today savoury vegetarian egg sauces from Campania and southern Lazio.
Pic related is one of the more common ones that's still enjoyed in Italy today, particularly in-and-around Naples: pasta with zucchini and egg sauce.
At its most simple, an egg sauce can be made with just oil and egg.
