8 Easy Pasta Recipes

One of the best ways to celebrate World Pasta Day, October 25th, is indulging in your favourite pasta dish. Whether it’s international pasta day or not, pasta is always a filling, comforting and a tasty meal. I love making a big pot of pasta with one of our favourite sauces and having the whole family eating the same meal! With having a 19-month-old toddler, preparing one meal for everyone can be a bit challenging, as we cook pretty spicy quite often. Pasta is always a winner and these 8 easy pasta recipes are family favourites.

Here are 8 easy and delicious pasta recipes that we love. From a spicy Penne Arrabbiata to a creamy Butternut Squash Pasta, all our recipes are plant-based and most of them are toddler and kid friendly. All our pasta recipes are cooked with simple and fresh ingredients that you will most probably already have or will easily find in your local supermarket. Let us know which recipe you loved the most. We are always more than happy to read your comments!
