4 Quick Pasta

We love our pasta for a few reasons, one of which are that some great tasting recipes can be really quick to make. Simply add in some good cheese, olive oil or chilli flakes, and you’ll end up with many variations to your dish!
Using San Remo’s pasta such as Angel Hair, Tagliatelle and Instant Spaghetti pastas, we have produced 4 different recipes that you can fix up in no time at all. From the rich and flavourful Mentaiko (spicy cod roe) pasta, the creamyyyy Garlic Shrimp Tagliatelle or even the classic Aglio Olio, which can be one of the easiest pastas dishes to make. If you are always running a busy day to make a hearty meal, but still want to enjoy home-cooked goodness, give these recipes a try!
