Pasta Dinners

Easy pasta dinners for busy weeknights: creamy, cheesy, saucy and simple, most ready in about 30 minutes or less.
Pasta is the ultimate busy-night dinner. It’s affordable, almost everyone loves it, and it pairs with whatever you have on hand. These recipes go beyond plain spaghetti with chicken, sausage, ground beef, shrimp and plenty of vegetables, so one bowl makes a full meal.
You’ll find one-pot pastas where the noodles cook right in the sauce, creamy Tuscan chicken pasta, baked ziti, beef stroganoff, lemon garlic shrimp pasta and easy pasta bakes you can make ahead. Each recipe tells you which pasta shape works best and how to get the sauce just right.
Tip: save a cup of the starchy pasta water before you drain. A splash helps the sauce cling to the noodles and keeps everything silky. Every recipe lists calories, protein, carbs and fat per serving. Craving something heartier? Try the Ground Beef Dinners or Chicken Dinners.
