Easy One Pot Pasta

Life is busy, and I don’t meal plan as often as I should.  I’m determined to do it more often though, because it keeps me focused and eating clean.  But, for days when I don’t have something planned, I love quick, easy recipes.  This One Pot Pasta couldn’t be any easier.  You chop the ingredients, throw them all into the water and it somehow magically cooks, the water is absorbed into the pasta, and you’re left with a rich creamy sauce.  

Easy One Pot Pasta

To make it healthier, you can use turkey or chicken sausage, and whole wheat or brown rice pasta (or really any healthy pasta that you like).  If you’d prefer it vegetarian, it would still be great without the sausage.  I think I’m going to have to put this on my menu plan next week.  Just thinking about it makes me hungry.

One Pot Pasta

Print Recipe

Ingredients
  

  • 1 pound whole-grain spaghetti
  • 1 12.8-ounce package smoked andouille sausage, thinly sliced
  • 1 large onion thinly sliced
  • 3 cups halved grape tomatoes
  • 2 cups fresh basil leaves loosely packed
  • 1 T. chopped garlic
  • Sea salt and pepper to taste
  • 1 cup grated Parmesan

Instructions
 

  • In a pot combine spaghetti, sausage, onion, tomatoes, basil, garlic and 4 1/2 cups water.
  • Season with salt and pepper.
  • Bring water to a boil, then reduce heat and simmer, uncovered, until pasta is cooked through and liquid has reduced.
  • Stir in Parmesan cheese and serve immediately.

Notes

The pasta absorbs the extra liquid as it sits and makes it kind of sticky, so it's important to serve it immediately.
