Hi I need some pasta recipes... we dont have alot of food in the house right now. So I dont want like something fancy that I have to go out and buy. Have any good recipes?Pasta Recipes?! Please?!`?
Your house sounds like mine. I often toss cooked pasta with steamed veggies (or however you like to cook them), olive oil, and garlic. I add whatever herbs and/or cheese I have on hand. Any vegetables will work. I'll even use turnip greens if that's all I've got. You're meal will be ready within 30 minutes--hot, fresh, and healthy.Pasta Recipes?! Please?!`?
I like to make what my daughter calls ';Chineese Noodles';. I normally use linguine, but have also made them with spaghetti and even bow tie pasta. Ingredients can vary according to what you have on hand. I use some brocolli, onion, baby corn, carrots, and mushrooms, and eggs. I also like to add cooked chicken. I use frozen veggies. but fresh work also, you just need to cook them longer. Add or omit anything. Sometimes I just add the egg. I always use the onion.
Cook your pasta according to the directions. While the pasta is coooking, thaw your veggies or cook them and cook some boneless chicken breast pieces (I use half a breast) in a little bit of butter and soy sauce till done, and set aside. Make an using 3 eggs. Roll the omlet up and cut into fine thin strips.
In a large deep pan, add some oil and diced onion. You want enough onion to cover the bottom of the pan. Cook the onion till it is tender. If you like garlic and ginger, add fresh chopped garlic and ginger to your onions and fy. Add your veggies and then the cooked chicken (with any juices that are left). Fry for a few minutes. Add your noodles. Season with soy sauce, and hot sauce if you like it hot. Add your egg and enjoy.
melt some butter in some olive oil...add garlic...don't brown garlic because it will taste burnt...add any veggies that you have cook until crisp/done....mix with pasta...add cheese while hot
1. Brown 1/2 pound of ground beef
2.in a 2 quart sauscepan add the following and simmer about 15 minutes: 2 cups chopped tomatoe sauce, 1/4 cup tomato paste, 1/2 teaspoon salt, 1/4 teaspoon pepper, 1/4 teaspoon garlic salt, 1/4 teaspoon oregano, 2 pinches of sugar, drained brownded ground beef

Pasta salad
Cook your pasta, and cool it down with cold water. Add a cup or so of whatever veggies you have (cooked or not) add some baco bits or chopped meat if you have any, pour some dressing or mayo over all. Add olives, cheese, pickles or whatever condiments you have on hand. Serve cold.
This is our favorite, and never ends up the same way-
here's the approx. ratio I use:
3 cups cooked pasta
1/2 cup chopped meat or 3 spoons baco bits
1 cup veggies
1/2 cup dressing
1/4 -1/2 cup condiments, cheese or olives, etc.

Preparing the Perfect Pasta
How do you cook pasta perfectly every time?
1. Boil 4 to 6 quarts of water for one pound of dry pasta. (You can divide this recipe depending on how much pasta you are cooking.)
2. Add the pasta with a stir and return the water to a boil.
3. Stir the pasta occasionally during cooking.
4. Follow the package directions for cooking times. If the pasta is to be used as part of a dish that requires further cooking, undercook the pasta by 1/3 of the cooking time specified on the package.
5. Taste the pasta to determine if it is done. Perfectly cooked pasta should be ';al dente,'; or firm to the bite, yet cooked through.
6. Drain pasta immediately and follow the rest of the recipe.
