This pasta recipe is one of my favorite go-to recipes that is easy to make, healthy, filling, and can last for a good piece of a week! You can choose to enhance it as much as you want, from as a simple as pasta with store-made sauce to your own home-made tomato sauce. It works with any choice of meat (although I prefer chicken or pork sausage), and you can mix and match the vegetables in the sauce as much as you want to fit your needs!

Instructions

Heat Tomato Sauce in Pot

Pour all of the pasta sauce, the can of crushed tomatoes, and all of the dry spices into a pot, set the heat to low, and let it simmer while cooking.

Dice Onions & Garlic

Dice the onions and garlic into small pieces and place them into a frying pan on low heat. Let them fully cook down until they are sautéed and soft (about 15-20 minutes)

Sautee Ground Chicken

While the onions are sautéing, prepare a second frying pan and cook the chicken on medium-high heat.

Boil Pasta

Boil a larger pot of water and add the pasta noodles. Follow the instructions on the packet for exact cooking time, but it should be around 10 minutes
