Whether you’re looking for something creamy like alfredo or hearty like bolognese, these 11+ Pasta Sauce Recipes are the best!
While a lot of times when looking for an easy recipe to make for dinner on busy weeknights, it’s quick to just grab a jar of sauce, boil some pasta, bake some frozen garlic bread and call it a night. But when you have the time, nothing quite beats a homemade sauce.
It can be as simple as a basic marinara with fresh herbs and fresh tomatoes. Or it can be something heartier like a bolognese with ground beef and pork. No matter what you’re in the mood for, with a handful of ingredients and fresh pasta, any of these pasta sauce recipes is sure to satisfy.
Some of my favorite pasta toppings include: red pepper flakes and parmesan cheese. Ingredients and toppings vary based off of whether you’re making a creamy sauce or a red sauce. And of course, every pasta dish is a little bit different.
Bolognese Sauce is a classic Italian sauce. Ground meat and coarsely chopped vegetables give this Bolognese recipe a rich and hearty taste that serves well over pasta and in lasagna!
Rich and decadent, Creamy Avocado Pasta Sauce is quite possibly my favorite pasta sauce. The best part? I don’t even have to feel guilty about eating it! It is healthy!
