54 Rich & Hearty Pasta Dinner Recipes
This week I'm totally in the mood for rich and hearty pasta dinners. You know what I mean...the type of pasta dish that bakes in the oven or simmers in the slow cooker until the spicy aroma fills your home and makes your mouth water in anticipation. This post may contain affiliate links.
The kind of dinner that brings my family together because seriously, who wants to eat at a friend's house when your Mom just cooked something this fabulous?
There's just so much deliciousness going on in this post, the trick is in choosing what you are in the mood for. From mellow white sauces like this Four Cheese Alfredo to delicious Spicy Marinara Sauce to make your mouth tingle, there's something for everyone.
More exotic flavors like Barbecue and Thai are also found here to awaken the tastebuds of the more adventurous home chef. I even found a quick and easy pasta dessert to end your perfect comfort food meal.
Before deciding on which recipes to make, you might want to explore pasta friendly cook wear like this stockpot with lock and drain feature. Enjoy!
