Easy One-Pot Mediterranean Linguini
This super simple, Mediterranean-inspired, dietitian-approved one-pot pasta dish will become a go-to family favorite in no time. You literally just throw all of the ingredients into a pot!
Ingredients
- 3 cups grape tomatoes halved or quartered
- 1 small onion sliced
- 2 cups milk Italian sausage pre-cooked, but into coins and halved
- 20-30 basil leaves
- 2 tsp garlic minced
- salt and pepper to taste
- 1 package of linguini
- 4 cups water
- 1/2 cup pesto sauce
- 1 cup shredded cheese I used a combo of parmesan and mozzarella
Instructions
- Place tomatoes, sausage, onion, basil, dry pasta, water, garlic and salt and pepper into a large (and deep) pan. Cover and bring to a light boil. Turn down to a simmer, remove cover and stir, stirring in pesto. Cook 7-9 minutes until pasta is al dente. Toss pasta with tongs occasionally to keep the pasta from sticking. The liquid will be mostly absorbed when pasta is finished cooking. *you can also wait to add pesto until the end of this step*
- Add cheese and toss to combine. Cheese may clump but will melt into the sauce after a few minutes. Enjoy!
