I’m Crystal, and I am so in love with pasta…. Anyone else?

It’s like a serious problem guys. Sometimes it’s all I think about. I typically want pasta with cheese, and I am in LOVE with red sauce. I figured that I would just whip up a super simple, no fuss, delicious skillet meal to combine all my favorites into one!

I think my pasta obsession stems from when I was a little girl. My favorite dish to help my mom make was lasagna. I remember how fascinated I was by the multiple layers, how it all came together, and the beauty of the dish — not to mention the taste!

Lasagna still remains, to this day, one of my all-time favorite dishes, and I’m 33 years old! I do still love making lasagna for my children, but sometimes it just takes too much time. I am always thinking about simple recipes that are similar but not so time consuming.

This skillet pasta is literally the easiest thing to make and it is so very aromatic and tasty. This recipe uses things you probably already have in your pantry. Just add some fresh hamburger meat, and voila! I also love salads, specifically Caesar salad, and a good fresh baguette. I added those to my dinner menu, invited some friends over, and it was a huge hit!

Start out by cooking and browning the meat. Then, cook your pasta until al dente. Drain the pasta, and set aside. Mix the sauce, parmesan cheese, and pasta with the meat.

Next is my FAVORITE part: Add more mozzarella cheese, and cover with a lid to melt it all over the top. Look at all that amazing goodness of meltiness!

I’m sure this dinner will be a hit at your house too. I can’t wait for you to try it!
