Can I Prep This Ahead?
You can chop all the ingredients in advance, but it’s best cooked fresh since it comes together so quickly.
What Vegetables Go Well in One Pot Pasta?
Try spinach, zucchini, mushrooms, or roasted red peppers for added nutrition and flavor.
How to Store One Pot Pasta
Allow the pasta to cool completely, then store it in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. Reheat gently on the stove or in the microwave with a splash of water or olive oil to loosen the sauce.
How to Freeze One Pot Pasta
Freeze only if necessary—this pasta is best fresh. If freezing, skip the Parmesan and cool completely. Store in freezer-safe containers for up to 2 months. Thaw in the fridge overnight and reheat on low heat, adding cheese just before serving.

How to Make One Pot Pasta
Step 1
Halve the cherry tomatoes, and thinly slice the onion and garlic. Place the linguine, tomatoes, onion, garlic, red pepper flakes, salt, pepper, basil, and water into a large pot.
Step 2
Bring everything to a boil over high heat. Stir frequently using tongs to prevent the pasta from sticking together.
Continue boiling until the pasta is al dente and most of the water has evaporated, about 10 to 12 minutes. Remove the pot from heat and drizzle in the olive oil. Toss well to combine.
Step 3
Sprinkle with grated Parmesan cheese, top with fresh basil, and serve hot.
