Pasta Recipes
Comforting pasta dishes from quick weeknight bowls to rich, slow-simmered sauces.
Where to start
The pasta recipes here range from short stovetop methods to baked dishes and long-simmered sauces. Decide whether you have time to cook the sauce, boil pasta separately, or assemble a bake before choosing from the full list.
- Creamy Garlic Alfredo — Estimated total: 29 minutes. A short stovetop pasta when you are not planning a separate bake.
- One-Pot Tomato Basil Pasta — Estimated total: 38 minutes. Pasta cooked with its sauce for fewer pans to wash.
- Classic Lasagna — Estimated total: 2 hours 26 minutes. A layered oven dish; allow substantially more time than for the stovetop options.
Times are estimates from the recipes; preparation and equipment may change the actual time.
