There’s just something about cheesy or creamy pasta that seems to hit the spot every single time. We’ve got a lot of great picks.
Sometimes you just want an easy dinner that satisfies your carby cravings. Not too much fuss, nothing exotic. And that’s when you turn to pasta. Pasta just never lets you down.
Our favorite cookbook pasta dishes: Some Dinner Done favorites that you’ve been enjoying the past few years include our One-Pot Pasta Rose, and One-Pot No-Cream Fettuccine Alfredo (both great for weeknight dinners, but note that one-pot recipes need to be served fresh), and the Baked Green Ziti (not for picky eaters, but delicious for those who love spinach too and don’t want something super kiddie). There’s also a bunch of our favorites in Best of Kosher, like the Penne Rosa (a classic that’s similar to Penne Vodka, but with no cream and no vodka), the Avocado and Basil Pasta Salad (the best pasta for when entertaining! It’s good when cold/at room temp too), Red Pepper Fettuccine (full of flavor for a great adult pasta meal), and the Creamy Dreamy White Lasagna (heavenly but takes some work…definitely worthy for a dairy Yom Tov meal…make this ahead and freeze).
Besides for some great pasta hacks (like this post on freezing your pasta in portions…so you always have something ready for those picky eaters) there are also some great pasta recipes right here on BetweenCarpools.com. Here are a few that might hit the spot. They’re crowd-pleasing and mostly easy. Some are suitable for weeknight dinners, and others are more special for when you’re having company for that dairy Yom Tov meal.
