I want to make more pasta dishes besides the same old spaghetti. I have a four year old son too so recipes that he may enjoy would be appreciated. Thank you in advance.Anyone have easy pasta recipes.?
I like to get the dry packages of pesto sauce that you just mix with olive oil. Then I mix in proscuitto, asparagus, capers, and roasted red peppers and pour on any shape pasta. I don't know what four-year olds eat, but you can add in almost anything! Sneak in some peas and some ground italian sausage, I bet that would be good!Anyone have easy pasta recipes.?
Boil the pasta, toss with butter and parmesan cheese. Garlic, too, if your son likes it. You can even add a scrambled egg to this for protein.
Here's what we call ';Chicken Glop.';
One can chicken breast meat
One can condensed cream of chicken soup
1 pound pasta (any shape) cooked al dente
seasoning: garlic, mild curry, poultry seasoning, or Old Bay
Cook pasta according to package directions. Do not rinse.
Meanwhile, in a large casserole, mix chicken meat with soup. Warm over low heat, adding a dash of milk or soy milk to thin if necessary. Use desired seasoning.
Add drained pasta, stir to combine. May be kept warm in the oven or served immediately.
Optional: stir in cooked mixed veg or cooked peas.
You can make pasta %26amp; chicken w/ a cheesy sauce from ragu. You basically cut up a few chicken breasts into bitesize chunks, and put them in a frying pan with oil until they are cooked all the way through. Take the pasta and cook that is boinling water. Once the chicken is cooked drain it and add that and the sauce into a sauce pan. It is quick and easy. You can actually find the recipe on the jar of ragu sauces. Hope this helps.
Take any pasta you like; shells,.macaroni, penne, etc make it fun looking for the Lil one and cook as normal. Separate pot cook 1 15 oz can of stewed tomatoes with seasonings. The garlic, cilantro and basil ones are great! Simmer tomatoes til pasta is done, drain pasta and add to each...you can add olives, Parmesan cheese or eat as is! Pasta dishes don't have to have meat...bon a petite!
Saute some cherry tomatoes and garlic in some olive oil, add in a bit of chopped ham and brown that, toss the lot with your pasta and sprinkle with Parmesan.
Boil some penne, drain it.
Add your favorite sauce, some italian seasoning, and some chicken.
Top your dinner with some finely grated parmesan (not the powdered kind!)
It's cheesy and delicious.
cut up and fry some bacon - add mushrooms onions etc if your son will eat them
when cooked add double cream
when bubbling add grated cheese and pepper
when thick enough add cooked pasta
yum! my lil one loves this x
boil a box of macaroni, drain it, then add mayo or sour cream (not daisy's brand, something u would get at a hispanic store... like mexican sour cream, or salvadorian sour cream... its not really SOUR but tastes great!!).. cook a can of corn (i know its precooked but if u cook it a little more it gets tender) drain it too.. then pour half of it (or all of it if u really like corn) and mix.. and ta-da.. easy, kid-friendly and yummy
Try cheese and macaroni! YUM!
Pasta with parmesean and peas.
