Ciao, amicis! Hi, friends! (I’m really getting good at this Italian stuff.) As mentioned before, Handmade Charlotte has partnered with our favorite sous chefs at Ragú to create simple one-pot pasta recipes for you and your family. Today’s menu item? An Easy Cheesy Bow Tie Pasta! But just because a recipe is easy, that doesn’t mean it has to be boring. In fact, I like to think of it as the perfect opportunity to let your culinary creativity shine. So use your noodle (come on, I had to! It’s a cheesy recipe) and let’s get to cooking!

We used Ragú^® Chunky Tomatoes, Garlic, & Onion to make our super cheesy bow tie pasta. This is a great weeknight meal for you and your favorite little chef!

• 2 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
• Mediterranean sea salt to taste
• 1 jar of Ragú^® Chunky Tomatoes, Garlic, & Onion Sauce
• 1 box of bow tie pasta
• Fresh chopped baby spinach or kale
• Cheddar cheese for garnish

Step 1
Gather up all your ingredients. Make a scene! Yes, we’re giving you permission to play with your food :)

Step 2
Pour everything into the pot. Soak in the beauty of a one-pot pasta dish. Give it a stir.

Step 3
Cook on medium to medium-high for 20 minutes. Every pot is different, so test to make sure your noodles are al dente!

Step 4
This step is pretty easy too! Serve up and enjoy!

Buon appetito!
