I love to pan fry some peppers, onions, mushrooms & zuccini for it & cover it all with some tomato & basil pasta sauce (seasoned with garlic & red wine vinegar to taste and thickened with a little bit of puree). Then I'll either sprinkle some parmesan or mozzerella over the top, or if im feeling adventurous I'll cover it with cheddar or mozzerella & pop it back in the oven forna full on pasta bake :)
Each person has those items that will consistently be in their pantries. Mine are garlic, some kind of onion or shallot, red pepper, tomato paste, parm, and what I tell myself is high quality olive oil. Take those things, cook them how you please, and put it on pasta. It’s almost as easy as buttered noodles but more flavorful anf fulfilling than that. When I’m feeling lazy, this is one of the best things I can do for myself. Take your pantry staples and try it out.
