All in Pasta
This pasta, on the surface, does not feel very fancy or involved to make — In fact, it only takes about as long as bringing water to a boil and cooking pasta once you get the hang of it. But by virtue of vibrant veggies and layered sauces, it punches way above its culinary weight. It’s a bridge between pantry-friendly and produce-forward, uses our pesto recipe aimed at curbing personal food waste, and might even impress a sweetie for an at-home date night.
As we find our equilibrium here at Power Plant HQ (read: an apartment in North Seattle currently well-stocked with canned beans and hand soap), we are relying on simple, affordable, and easy comfort foods that maximize pantry staples and hearty produce… This recipe just-so-happens to be one that we’ve relied on for years because it is easy, quick, nourishing, and combines pantry staples and hearty veggies in decadent harmony!
Chances are that when we want Mac & Cheese, we want it fast. And we probably want it to be affordable, too. Our take on this classic comfort food is a little different than many of the (delicious) recipes we’ve seen! Using affordable pantry staples, this recipe comes together nearly as fast as boxed Mac & Cheese. It’s quick, easy, and super cheesy.
