Even though I love this recipe’s simplicity and ease of preparation, I know that some of you may want some fancier recipes. So, I did a little research of my own and I came up with three extra bow-tie pasta recipes.

However, I will give you some basic hints about how to prepare the three variations, but for step-by-step recipes, please do some extra research yourself. You know how I always say you should be well-informed before starting to prepare anything?

Bow Tie Pasta with Tomato Sauce

What I love about this bow-tie pasta recipe is that it is exactly what it says: just pasta and a creamy tomato sauce. So, the bow ties are cooked and then tossed with a creamy tomato sauce, parmesan cheese (if you want to go a little extra), and fresh basil.

This is also just a 20-minute recipe, and the ingredients are more than affordable. You have them already in your kitchen.

Cold Bow Tie Pasta Salad

A Greek pasta salad is great for summer days when you’re in a hurry but want to prepare something quick, fresh, and delicious. Not to mention that it is a nice dish to take to work or prepare for your kids’ school days.

Basically, all you need to do is cook the pasta, drain it, and place it in a large bowl. Then, combine it with cucumber, cherry tomatoes, lettuce, parsley (for some extra flavor), black olives, garlic, red onion, feta cheese, olive oil, lemon juice, and tzatziki.

Bow Tie Pasta with Chicken

This recipe is easy and so hearty that it may become your best friend for the next family dinner.

You just have to cook some chicken breasts and pasta in separate dishes and set them aside to cool. Next, combine some tomato sauce, basil, olive oil, salt, pepper, and minced garlic. Finally, just mix the cooked pasta and chicken breast with the sauce. Serve with fresh basil and grated Parmesan cheese.
