We probably don’t have to introduce you to the miraculous nature of the one-pot pasta. You’ve likely seen it: Dry pasta goes into a pan along with some add-ins, plus a few cups water or broth. It all cooks together, so there’s no large pot of water turning your kitchen into a sauna and no extra dishes to wash when dinner’s over. What you do have: a luxurious, creamy sauce that gets a little help from the starchiness of the noodles. But maybe you’ve stuck to the same few recipes, or you’re looking for a few new one-pot pasta recipes that highlight the produce in season right now.
Below, you’ll find recipes that follow this formula, but there are also boiled noodles tossed with no-cook sauces, ideal for hot summer nights, and pastas that start on the stove before traveling to the oven for a melty, cheesy finish. Find these and plenty more year-round winners, just by scrolling down.
