Easy Pasta Bake – In The Oven!
Carole’s Favourite
The lovely Carole has offered to share one of her family favourite supper dishes and it looks delicious! Caroles favourite easy pasta Bake- in the oven!
They love it and have this dish at least twice a month!
These sort of ‘Pasta in the oven’ suppers are such staples in our busy family lives! So simple, easy, quick and so tasty!
They call it ….‘ Carole’s Favourite Pasta In The Oven!’
It may seem a bit of a faff first time around but it really doesn’t take long to throw together.
It can also be made ahead of time (just needs a little longer on the oven)
It s delicious blend of Penne pasta, tomatoes, chorizo, courgettes and lovely creamy fresh Mozzarella topped with Basil!
I’m drooling just trying this up!
So have a go at Carole’s Favourite Pasta!
I do so love it when I get a great new recipe for easypeasyemonsqueezy which is a real family affair! So have a go folks and let us know how you get on and what you think!
Thank you Carole 🙂

Added a grated clove of garlic and a shake of crushed chillies at the wilting basil stage, and grated cheddar in the absence of mozzarella. Scrummy!

I’m doing a lite version of this tonight with courgetti and substituting half the chorizo for chicken.
