Easy Spaghetti al Pesto Genovese
Pesto Genovese is actually one of the easiest and healthiest sauces you can make for your spaghetti.
Provided you have the basil (I always have some plants in pots), itās a sauce you donāt boil, you donāt fry and it doesnāt fail!
All you need is your food processor.

Rigatoni alla Puttanesca
Spaghetti alla puttanesca wasnāt named after an actual prostitute, as the etymology of puttana (whore in Italian) might suggest.
If you have found out there are some olives and caper buds left in the kitchen, you should take a chance on this oneā¦

Spaghetti with aubergine and red pepper
Ī¤he texture of the aubergine can very easily fool you and be mistaken for meat.
However, this is a quite light vegetarian dish and one that will satisfy you with its flavor.
4.
Ravioli with mushrooms and parsley
This is proof that simple can be fascinating.
Ravioli with mushrooms and parsley is a very quick recipe that is not demanding in any way.
All it takes is some fresh (or even frozen) parsley to take it to the next level.
Truth be told, the cream also helps…
5.
Spaghetti with tuna and cumin
What is amazing here is that tuna, widely consumed in cans, feels so much like fresh fish/meat, thanks to the combination with the cumin, this wonderful spice used very often in the cuisines of the Mediterranean, Latin America, North Africa and South Asia.
In Morocco itās got its own container on the table, the Turks put its seeds in their āTavuk Izgaraā, the Greeks use it in the āSoutzoukakiaā and in Spain, if you donāt mind at all about an issue, you āmind a cuminā.
6.
Tortellini with Frankfurters and cream
The real star of this recipe is hidden: itās two eggs!ā¦
It often takes very little to make a special dish. Here, the eggs combine the cream with the sausages, while the parsley colors the dish and represents the vegetable kingdomā¦
7.
Spaghetti with olives in tomato sauce
Ah! The olives!
This blessed Mediterranean fruit can really stand out in a recipe, so it has to be used rather moderately.
But when you add some pitted olives in a simple tomato sauce with peppers, everything becomes so much tastier…
8.
Casarecce with salmon in white sauce
Salmon is famous for its beneficial omega-3 fats, but it also offers an amazing percentage of daily needed vitamins D and B12.
A light white sauce and some pepper on casarecce would be its ideal match for a guaranteed pleasure for refined palatesā¦

Gnocchi with broccoli and bacon
If there is a heaven for pasta sinners, this must be the dish served there.
For this recipe I chose gnocchi because the ingredients tend to ānestā in them, so you get a nice surprise even when you eat just one.
However, you can substitute them with literally any common type of pasta and you get great results. You can also double the quantities for maximum deliveranceā¦
10.
Pappardelle allā uovo with spring onions and cream
A fresh ingredient like a spring onion can be distinctive enough to carry the weight of an entire recipe.
Here, the spring onion finds an ally in the sun-dried tomato, which in turn brings in a rich, slightly sour taste to a recipe that was sweeter because of the cream and onionsā¦

Truth be told, pasta has become popular as an ingredient of the Italian cuisine and it forms part of the Mediterranean diet. Pasta dishes can be ordered and devoured in various Italian restaurants all around the world.
The secret of the pasta may lie in its simplicity. It is usually made of white flour or wheat flour, but today we also have the options of whole wheat pasta and, more recently, gluten-free pasta.
Then again, the list of ingredients that can be used in a pasta recipe is endless; The sauce can be anything for a simple tomato sauce to bechamel sauce, white sauce with cream or other dressings. Garlics and onions are great friends of pasta, vegetables and other greens like parsley, dill, spinach, zucchini, peppers, broccoli and mint can be found in various recipes, while cheese is an absolute ticket to success, either grated, sliced or baked on top.
