Pasta Recipes

Pasta dinners are a weeknight win that everyone always loves. Easy Italian classics like olive-studded pasta puttanesca, vegetarian pasta alla norma, homemade pesto pasta, and fresh tomato pasta pomodoro can be enjoyed on their own or served as a side to your favorite proteins. 

Baked pasta recipes like this meaty baked ziti and baked sausage rigatoni can typically be assembled in advance and baked off later, which is a huge time saver on busy evenings. 

If you’ve got chicken on hand, add it to this chicken piccata pasta or cook off the beaten path by making a batch of buffalo chicken pasta (it’s not authentically Italian, but it sure is good).   

Creamy pasta recipes that are paradoxically cheesy yet light in flavor include this lemon asparagus orzo that I love serving with Greek chicken, as well as this super fast lemon fettuccine that comes together in 30 minutes.
