Notes
One of the reasons I like this so much is it’s super simple to toss together and leave simmering while I’m getting kids ready for sports, practice, helping them with homework or listening to them talk about their day.
you can toss the pasta and tomato sauce together, top with fresh grated parmesan and chopped basil leaves * you can add sliced chicken breasts (remember, we have those frozen chicken breasts from the other combo loco deal) for a heartier meal * you could put cooked pasta, sauce, cheese and a meat of your choice into a baking dish and bake to make an ooey gooey melty pasta bake ****** * This is also super delicious served cold for lunch the next day! There are so many options!
