In 20 minutes, a light ‘n fresh tomato sauce and tender twirly noodles are good-to-go, and there’s only one pot to clean. We love how this is an inexpensive bare-bone recipe but makes a meal kids and adults love to eat.
Ingredients
-
2 medium tomatoes
- 2 tbsp olive oil
-
2 cups Chicken or Vegetable Broth
-
2 tbsp Marinara Sauce Mix
- ½ lb (225 g) uncooked spaghetti noodles
- ¼ cup shredded Parmesan cheese
-
Toppings (optional): fresh basil, extra Parmesan cheese
Directions
Dice tomatoes, reserving all juices.
- In a large non-stick pan or large pot, add tomatoes, including the juice, and oil. Heat over medium high heat, cook 2-3 min until tomatoes are tender.
- To pan add broth, seasoning, and sauce mix. Add spaghetti, pressing down to submerge pasta in liquid. If the pot or pan is not wide enough, break spaghetti in half.
- Cover; cook 10-12 min, or until pasta is al dente. Reduce heat to medium-low if liquid is bubbling too vigorously.
- If pasta is not cooked within 12 min, add a bit more broth, cover and cook an additional 1-2 min. Alternatively, if pasta sauce is too watery by the time the pasta is done, uncover and cook an extra few min to let excess liquid evaporate.
- Remove from heat, top with parmesan, and serve.
Recipe Note
No fresh tomatoes? Use what you have! Use 1 can (14 oz/398 ml) diced tomatoes instead.
Serve with Meatballs and 2 cups leafy green salad.
