AN EASY ONE POT DINNER IDEA
Hi, buddy!! Happy Sunday! Hope you’re having a terrific weekend!
We got rained out. All those weekend-fun-plans were erased. WAAAAAAH! No, I really AM crying.
Have you ever been stuck inside for forever-and-a-day with a 2-year old AND a 5-year old?! I’m sorry if you have.
They were pissed! To make it worse, I played NKOTB’s Cover Girl on repeat just to irritate them a bit more. 😀
Also?! THANKS SO MUCH for celebrating my Blogiversary with me the other day! You guys ROCK!!! Many of you left me wonderful comments that I am truly going to cherish for life! I wish I could express in words how much I appreciate you. I can only hope that you KNOW how much I admire you all. (((((HUGS)))))
For a person who almost exclusively wants to eat Chocolate Mousse Cake and Chicken Salad, I’m actually surprised by the amount of noodles that I eat. This has nothing to do with me and everything to do with my husband. And the fact that it only takes a few minutes to cook a pasta-dinner. Actually, that’s the entire truth. 30-minute dinners rule my world. I’m a class act.
On the flip side, my mom never made 30-minute dinners. Oh no. The lady made noodles FROM SCRATCH! Sausages, too. And she grows her own vegetables.
But me?!? Oh, sweet Lord. I complain when I have to go to the grocery store to BUY noodles AND turkey sausages. I’ve also told you on a few occasions that I hop over to her backyard just to raid their vegetable garden.
In any case, at least I still make home cooked meals, every day. Right?! After all, those noodles have to be cooked.
So in thinking about mom’s noodles, sausages, and home grown vegetables, I decided to throw all that together in a pan and make you dinner! ‘Cept, the noodles and sausages are from the store. …shrug…
Inspired by the One-Pot Caprese Pasta Dinner – method, this was a satisfying meal, through and through.
The best part about this recipe is that you can use any fresh veggies that you have on hand, and you can make it a complete veggie dinner by leaving out the sausages. No harm done.
Have a great Sunday!
ENJOY!

What is the best way to heat leftovers? It made a lot for two people, which is fantastic.
Hi!
For leftover noodles, I heat up a tablespoon of cooking oil in a skillet and add the noodles to the hot oil to warm through. Sometimes, to make things easier, I’ll just microwave the leftovers. 😊 But, I think the skillet route is better, and the oil adds moisture to the dry noodles.
Should I cook the noodles before I put them in milk and broth?
Hi!
No, because they will cook in the milk and broth – see steps 4, 5, and 6 in the recipe.
Super delicious and really easy! I had the fine egg noodles on hand which worked great. I also used a link of spicy chicken sausage and halved the recipe. Perfect amount for two for a fresh, delicious lunch. Tomatoes, jalapeño, onion and garlic and wow, terrific flavor and texture!
Thank YOU! I am very glad you enjoyed it! 🙂
I made the one pot (turkey) polish sausage and noodles… omg it’s was so good, I loved it.
I am so happy you loved it! Thank YOU!! 🙂
Delicious…Fast and so easy! I took a photo, but didn’t know how to add it, LOL. All the liquids made this dish so creamy. Thank you so much…A keeper!
I made this last night. Added more jalapenos, green peppers and used 12 oz of noodles instead of the 8 (so used 2 cups of stock and 1.5 cups of milk. It was spicy and so great tasting. Thanks for a great recipe.
I made this recipe tonight and used kielbasa and pics Dr Gallo with jalapeno peppers and nearly died because it was so delicious. Thanks for the inspiration!
That was supposed to say Pico de Gallo. Haha
LOL!! 🙂 I read it 3 times to myself trying to figure out who Doctor Gallo was. haha!
But yay for an awesome dinner!! So happy you enjoyed it. Thank you! 🙂
I like this – easy and great ingredients!
Thanks for the recipe.
This was delicious, and will now be a regular dish for me. Super easy, and only one pot/pan to clean up! I substituted the recommended pasta and broth with bow-tie pasta, and chicken broth. I also used diced canned tomatoes as I didn’t have any fresh. I used fresh spinach, lots of banana peppers, and fresh green beans.
