Pasta





          There’s nothing tastier than a hot bowl of pasta for dinner especially on a cold weekday .There are many kinds of pasta you can have such as Fettuccine, linguine , asnolottu or a bucatini just to name a few. This week for dinner I decide to have pasta. Pasta is another quick and easy meal not to mention cheap meal to make on a weekday.
 
I love pasta and it’s has been one of the first meals I’ve ever learned to make. At my local grocery store you can purchase various types of pasta for as little as 99 cents. Tomato sauce prices range so you are able to find one within your budget, but be aware the cheaper this tomatoes sauce is can affect the quality and the taste. You will also need cheese, people usually uses parmesan cheese , but I preferred marble, so that’s what I used.

What you will need

  • Parmesan cheese (I prefer marble cheese)
  • Tomatoe sauce of your choice
  • Strainer
  •  Water
  •  Oven
  • Pot and pan
Cooking Pasta Steps
1. Rinse the pasta off , place into pot and fill the pot with water until water has covered the pasta and turn burner on high
2. Allow the pasta to cook , you will notice it is softer to pick up with a fork from the pot, let it cook for approximately 15-20 mins depending on the type of pasta or the instructions from the package
3. Once pasta is almost done add 2 teaspoons of salt
4.Drain the water from the pot by using a strainer , and place pasta into a bowl
 
                  Sauce Instructions
 
1. Take pan and heat the oven to 6, and pour tomato sauce into the pan to heat up
2. You can add additional ingredients to the sauce if you wish ( I cut up onions, green peppers, black peppers)
3.      Stir the tomatoes sauce occasionally and you may want to add water if the sauce is becoming too thick just as little expired
