ONE-PAN PASTA
This one-pan pasta recipe is simple, flavorful, and made with minimal effort. Everything cooks together in a single pan — pasta, vegetables, spices, and liquid — creating a creamy, risotto-like dish without the need for multiple pots or long prep. Cherry tomatoes, spinach, garlic, and red onion bring freshness and depth, while the pasta soaks up all the flavors. It’s the perfect weeknight dinner or a comforting option for lazy weekends.
