Meals You Can Make While the Pasta Cooks

Pasta is wonderful. It's quick to cook, and loaded with healthy carbs. And, if you want, you can buy whole wheat, gluten free, or low carb varieties. Kids usually love it. On those nights that you don't feel like spending a lot of time in the kitchen, it's a great go-to option.

So here are 8 recipes - a week and a day - worth of meals you can make while the pasta cooks. For those evenings when spending hours in the kitchen isn't an option.

Orzo Pilaf

Pad Thai

Confetti Spaghetti

Copycat Skyline Black Beans & Rice

Asian Peanut Sauce & Veggies over Pasta - this makes a great "Bowl"

Classic Spaghetti with Marinara Sauce from Scratch

Asian Noodles

Skillet Mushroom Noodles

Enjoy!
