Easy Pasta Recipes – Pasta Recipe – Quick Pasta Recipes

Pasta

Pastas bring family together, give comfort, create laughs. Spaghetti, Fusilli, Udon, Ziti, Penne, Fettuccine, Lasagna, Rigatoni, Ravioli…and the list goes on and on. What pasta do you want today? There are hot pasta dishes, baked pasta casseroles, fried pastas, cold pasta salads, and of course the many numbered cheesy pastas available. I am the number one fan of Spaghetti and Marinara Sauce. But only my personal spaghetti and marinara sauce. I don’t need meat or cheeses, no fancy stuff, just simple spaghetti noodles with a nice thick homemade marinara. That makes my day and life when I eat it up!

I am all for easy recipes. And if I can make a delicious pasta dinner in under 15 minutes, then I am sold! This crab recipe does just that. In the time it takes to boil the pasta, you are done cooking the sauce. I use lump crab in this recipe and it is just a matter of heating the crab meat in the sauce and tossing in the pasta.

Delicious Rating: Butter…Garlic…Crab…Pasta…really?! Are you seriously wondering if you should cook up this recipe?! GO! Buy the ingredients and make this up for dinner tonight!!!

Creamy White Chicken & Artichoke Lasagna

Creamy. Cheesy. Pasta. Chicken. Basil. Artichoke Hearts. Sun Dried Tomatoes.
What more could you want in a meal? This Lasagna is delicious, I mean, hands-down-ready-to-eat-the-whole-pan-by-myself-delicious. Plus it doesn’t require a lot of ingredients or steps which makes it an easy recipe for any day of the week.

I have always shied away from making lasagna. I remember my first attempt was a runny mess when cut into. My next few weren’t that great either. But with enough time and practice I look forward to a Lasagna night at home.

Delicious Rating: Did I mention this lasagna is delicious? Since my DH and I already love artichoke hearts and sun dried tomatoes, we are in love with this recipe. The cream cheese sauce is super creamy and doesn’t give you the ‘runny’ lasagna that sometimes happens. This is a perfect recipe with salad and some Soft & Crusty Bread. Plus, if you are stuck in a rut with traditional lasagna this is a great way to change things up. Leave a comment and let me know how it turns out for you.

Avocado Broccoli Linguine

What color is California? I know that might seem like an odd question, but humor me, if you had to choose a color for California what would it be? I was thinking green, a creamy light green that is beautiful when the sun hits it. An avocado green perhaps. This pasta is definitely California. The greens from the spinach, broccoli, and avocado give it beautiful color when the sun hits it. This recipe is super easy, relaxed, laid back, perfect anytime of day or year. It is full of flavor, fun to eat, and yet surprising, never boring or dull. This pasta is definitely California.

Delicious Rating: Okay, so maybe I am bias being from California or maybe it is really that great! If you love Cali then you will definitely love this pasta. It is packed with garlic and a light olive oil sauce that is balanced with all the veggies in this vegan recipe. Broccoli and Spinach and Avocado, can someone say “Yum” please?! This is one of those easy recipes that cook up in 20-30 minutes and you are never left with leftovers. Please try this and let me know what you think!

Simple and easy recipes are my type of thing, especially after a long day of activities. And there is nothing better than a good bowl of pasta at the end of the day. Or for breakfast…or for lunch too! I think I just love pasta and this recipe is on top of my list!

Delicious Rating: This pasta is light and refreshing. Almost all of the ingredients you probably have right now in your kitchen. Just throw it all together and voila! You have got yourself a complete meal, just add a side salad and maybe some bread and you are good to go. You can even add more veggies or herbs so let me know your favorite toss up pasta.
