Step 1

Monday has decided to rear it’s ugly head yet again but I’m hoping I can make it a little better with this glorious pasta I have for you today. And it’s not just any kind of pasta. It’s a one-pot-skillet-kind-of-pasta, loaded with

Then we’ll stir in some tomato sauce and fresh made salsa.

Once that heats through, go ahead and toss in some corn, beans and tomatoes. You can add in your favorite veggies too – it’s completely customizable!

Let that come together and give it a good stir.

Next comes the good stuff – cheese, cheese and some more cheese. I added Monterey Jack and sharp cheddar but I would love to try this again with jalapeno Monterey Jack next time!

Heat olive oil in a saucepan over medium high heat. Add ground turkey and cook until browned, about 3-5 minutes, making sure to crumble the beef as it cooks; drain excess fat.

Stir in tomato sauce and salsa until well combined. Add pasta, tomato, corn and black beans, and gently toss to combine.

Stir in cheese until melted through, about 1-2 minutes.

I’d like to take advantage of this excellent pan’s stove-top-to-oven capability, and make something like chicken breasts that start with a quick saute in olive oil to brown them. After that, soften some onions in the pan, make a quick sauce right in the pan (scraping up all that goodness from the bottom of the pan), replace the chicken, cover it, and pop it in the oven to finish. I make a similar dish now, but the perfect pan would be, well, perfect!

Maybe a fall vegetable stir fry of sorts.

Sounds good, but you shouldn’t call it a one pot meal, because you need a second pot to cook the pasta. to truly be a one-pot meal the pasta would be cooked in with the rest of the ingredients by adding extra water to the skillet, bring to a boil and add the pasta in there to cook.

Julia, as noted to another reader above, you can definitely add the pasta to the skillet by following the original recipe, making it a true one pot meal. I personally like to cook it separately so I don’t have to add too much excess liquid to the skillet.

This looks delicious. I also love that it is a single pot meal, that makes dinner so much easier.

Made this the other night and I loved it. I also made some fresh pico and threw it on top too. One thing that’s important to remember with skillet pasta dishes is that it’s always best to under cook the pasta in the water, and then let it finish cooking in your skillet. This way the pasta has more time to incorporate into the dish and it absorbs more of the flavor. This is what I did (and always do) and it came out great… Also, I added a little tomato pasta for a little more tomato flavor. This is going into my keep file

Loved this pasta dish! Super easy to make and full of yummy, hearty flavors!

I made this tonight and it turned out amazing! I added chili flakes to the topping for a little more spice
