If you have ground beef frozen, or even chicken fillets, they are really easy to brown in the skillet frozen!. They cook as they thaw in about the same time as cooking from a fresh state!. But I digress!.!.!.
We love pasta tossed w/ pesto and maybe a splash of cream in there, too!. A littel of the pasta boiling water thins it out while providing texture, too!. Just toss hot pasta w/ a couple Tbsp of basil pesto (or sundried tomato pesto), maybe some fresh minced garlic, a ladle-full of pasta cooking liquid, and maybe a couple Tbsp of cream!. Stir well, taste for salt, and if needed, use grated parmesan cheese instead for more flavor than salt alone can give!. Easy, and great to add grilled chicken to as well!.Www@FoodAQ@Com

Red clam sauce is good! I add baby shrimp to my clam sauce!
My mom frys up peppers, onions, garlic and squash and adds tomatoes or can of tomatoes and then just throws over any pasta! It is real good!
Pasta alfredo sauce is good with broccolli!
