One Pot No Tomato Pasta

A quick and easy one-pot pasta dish without tomatoes, featuring a creamy garlic and herb sauce that comes together in under 30 minutes. Perfect for a comforting weeknight meal with minimal cleanup.

Ingredients

Scale

12 ounces dried spaghetti
4 cups vegetable broth
1 cup water
1 tablespoon olive oil
4 cloves garlic, minced
1 teaspoon dried basil
1 teaspoon dried oregano
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon black pepper
1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese
1/2 cup heavy cream
2 tablespoons chopped fresh parsley

Instructions

In a large pot or deep skillet, combine the dried spaghetti, vegetable broth, water, olive oil, minced garlic, dried basil, dried oregano, salt, and black pepper.
Bring the mixture to a boil over medium-high heat, stirring occasionally to prevent the pasta from sticking.
Once boiling, reduce the heat to medium and continue to cook, stirring frequently, until the pasta is al dente and most of the liquid has been absorbed, about 10 to 12 minutes.
Lower the heat to medium-low and stir in the grated Parmesan cheese and heavy cream until the sauce is creamy and well combined.
Remove the pot from heat and sprinkle the chopped fresh parsley over the pasta.
Serve immediately, garnished with additional Parmesan cheese if desired.
