Drop everything because dinner has officially been reinvented! After a long day checking off to-dos on my list, I’m totally ready for a break and a good meal. Those two don’t normally go together though, do they? Well thanks to Barilla Ready Pasta things are changing fast, my friends. Raise your hands if 60 seconds to perfect pasta excites you, too? Today, I’m excited to share how I made a delish Chicken and Veggie Pasta Bake in about 15 minutes. Can you even stand it? Two hands up for this one!
I’m totally into fresh and healthy meals right now. If I can make them super fast, that’s a serious perk. Pairing up Barilla Ready Pasta and Barilla Marinara Sauce is the perfect way to win dinner. The pasta is ready in as little as one minute and has only three simple ingredients, sea salt, olive oil and pasta. The pasta we all love, with a whole lot less prep time and less dishes to clean.
Add on other fresh ingredient shortcuts to pack even more of a punch. For this recipe, I used pre-cut onions and fully cooked chicken from Walmart’s private label line “Marketside. Proof that you don’t need to spend too much time making dinner, but you’ll get to reap the benefits of a satisfying meal that the whole family will love.
