Substitute any vegetables of choice for the mushrooms for example, zucchini, kale, or spinach. To make a meat sauce, saute one pound of ground beef or turkey meat until cooked through, before adding sauce.

super pasta bake

I made a super easy, super delicious do-ahead pasta dish. Since then I’ve made it many times, with just about all of our different flavors of pasta and it turns out great every time.

rosy pappardelle

The inside scoop at Al Dente Pasta is that we put the final touches on our Golden Egg Pappardelle and Garlic Parsley Pappardelle. You’ll be happy to know that even though it is considerably wider than our fettuccine, it still cooks in 3-4 minutes. Because of its width, however, it holds up beautifully under sauces that were sometimes a little too heavy for our other noodles.

baked macaroni and cheese

So happy people are realizing that you can substitute fettuccine and pappardelle for shapes like penne, even in baked dishes. When using in baked dishes, just remember to undercook the pasta, so 2 minutes should be perfect.
