Pasta is versatile and can be made into many shapes. It has been around since 500 BC when Etruscans made it by smashing grains on rocks and mixing it with water. Now, you can just buy it from the store and use it for spaghetti, lasagna, ravioli, alfredo, and more.
Some pasta dishes are light and fun like crispy air fryer pasta chips which only have a few ingredients. You can even make or make your own pasta from scratch with some eggs and flour.
Let's start with my favorite instant pot chicken alfredo because it only takes minutes to make and the creamy richness is so silky and delicious. This is my go-to meal for fast weeknight meals.
When I want something that cooks itself low and slow while I am busy doing other things, I turn to my slow cooker. This Tuscan chicken pasta dish is juicy, tender, and full of garlic, parmesan, and cream.
Another meal that cooks itself is one that everyone knows well. This Italian comfort food is the family-friendly dish that goes great with bread and salad. And it makes great leftovers too. I love crockpot meals for cold nights no matter what I am serving.
Lasagna is one of my favorite pasta dishes even though it is one of the most difficult to make. With this easy recipe, it is so simple, everyone will be making it all the time. And this is the best lasagna you will ever taste, I promise.
You cannot celebrate pasta day without enjoying crack chicken casserole with its cheesy pasta, ranch seasoning, and tender chicken with lots of bacon and creaminess. It is so addictive, it has to be called crack. Seriously, I love this stuff.
