A Super-Quick and Easy Pasta Dish
This hearty, flavorful dish can be whipped up in less than 15 minutes and it requires only the basic cooking skills, so it is ideal for weeknight dinners or simple yet impressive appetizers. The silky cream of the cheese sauce and the crunchy, delicious everything bagel seasoning join forces to create a new experience in taste and texture.
The pasta dish can be enjoyed on its own as a light but savory meal, or as a side dish. To make it a more substantial meal, just combine grilled chicken or cooked Italian sausage with the cream cheese sauce to warm it through before adding the pasta.
Recipe:
Bring a large pot of heavily-salted water to the boil, follow the package directions and cook pasta until al dente.
While the pasta cooks, melt the cream cheese in a skillet over medium-low heat until smooth. Add the cooked chicken or Italian sausage at this stage if using.
When pasta is cooked, use a glass measuring cup to reserve about 1 cup of pasta water, then drain the pasta.
Add half the pasta water to the melted cream cheese and whisk until smooth, then add the pasta and everything bagel seasoning, stirring gently until the pasta is fully coated with sauce. Stir in more of the pasta water to loosen up the sauce if necessary. Serve immediately.
