Such a perfect weeknight meal… I love a dinner I can get on the table in under 30 minutes AND that tastes delicious!
Best part is that you already have the ingredients in your pantry!
You’ll need a 12 ounce box of linguine (or spaghetti), 12 ounces of diced tomatoes with juice, 4 1/2 cups of water, 1 onion and 4 garlic cloves
The herbs and spices we’ll use are 1/4 teaspoon of red pepper flakes, 1 teaspoon each of dried basil, dried oregano, garlic and onion powders and kosher salt and black pepper to taste
Pour the water and can of diced tomatoes with juice into a stockpot. Add in the bay leaf and herbs and spices. Give them a quick stir
Thinly slice the onion and garlic cloves and add to the pot
Break the pasta in half and mix all of the ingredients
Bring to a boil over high heat, stirring occasionally with tongs to make sure the pasta doesn’t stick together
Cook for 9 minutes until al dente and the liquid is mostly absorbed
Give a stir and season again with kosher salt and pepper if necessary
Serve with grated parmesan cheese and fresh basil
A delicious dinner your family will love and it’s on the table in under 30 minutes!
Enjoy!

Susan gave me this recipe after I said I can not cook. It is easier than easy to do and comes out great! If I can do it anyone can! Just shows even I can cook a delicious healthy meal with a little help from Simply Sundays!
Thank you Andy! And I think it’s great that you’ve made some of your own modifications like adding bell peppers! You’re right… anyone can cook! 🙂
Looks simply delicious! I love pasta & I love anything that can be cooked in one pot! Bravo!
Me too! Easy to cook and easy to clean up!
