7 of our all-time favourite pasta recipes
Nothing screams comfort food more than a bowl of pasta. Not only does it satisfy carb cravings, but the beauty of pasta (fresh, in particular) is that it can be on the table in no time at all – making it the perfect weeknight dinner option. From arrabbiata to carbonara, bolognese to lasagne – which classic pasta dish would you go for?
Classic Spaghetti Bolognese with Parmesan
Arguably one of the best family meals in the world, wouldn’t you agree? We certainly think so – and that’s why this delicious bolognese is one of our 12 Weekly Classics, meaning you can find it on our menus on a six week rotation.

Roasted Pepper Linguine with Cashew Cream Cheese

Mac ‘N Four Cheese Pasta Bake with Crudités
A guaranteed family favourite, our take on the classic mac’n’cheese is made up with four cheese varieties and a whole lot of pasta! The side dish of crudites adds a welcome crunch to the dish, and the kids love them!

Cretan Summer Pasta with Feta, Olives and Cucumber
Another Greek-inspired dish, but we just can’t get enough of the summer flavours here. We use skioufichta, a traditional Cretan pasta made from water, flour, salt and butter to bring a taste of authenticity to the dish.

Squash and Sage Carbonara with Pine Nuts
