Pasta All-In is a one-pan meal (hence the name) that is so easy to make and doesn’t take long at all.
Jump to RecipePasta All-In started from a recipe that I saw someone share on Facebook, one of those many recipe videos that are floating around every day. There wasn’t a title, and it didn’t link to a blog post. It was just a video without words or anything else. I tried to look at what was going in and went from there.
The recipe is so easy because it’s all cooked in one pan, hence the name ‘pasta all-in’. The recipe video didn’t have a name for it, so I made my own.
This recipe generally makes enough for 4 people, so I usually halve the recipe for us. It can be reheated, but for some reason, it’s one of those that we just don’t end up eating. So I have started making just enough for dinner that night unless we have people over.

Speaking of, it’s a great recipe if you are having company because it’s quick and easy and doesn’t take a lot of work. Put everything in the pot, let it cook, then serve.
Also, sometimes I don’t have enough vegetable broth so I’ve made it with chicken broth and it is just as good! This is a great meatless option and can be vegan if you use vegan cheese.

Pasta All-In Step by Step
Ingredients
- 12 oz linguine
- 1 can tomatoes (diced)
- 1 large onion (sliced)
- 4 cloves garlic (minced)
- 2 tsp oregano
- 2 tsp basil
- 3 1/2 cups vegetable broth
- 1/2 cup parmesan cheese (shredded, for garnish)

Preparation
You’ll need a large stockpot to make Pasta All-In since you are adding all of the ingredients into one pot. Cut up the vegetables and throw those in the pot along with the linguine, tomatoes, seasonings, and broth.

If the pot isn’t tall enough, you may need to break the linguine in half for it to fit. Otherwise, you can also wait until the linguine cooks a bit so it gets soft and will fit in the pot.

Once you are able, cover the pot with the lid and bring everything to a boil.

Turn the heat down and let it simmer while keeping the lid on and cook for about 10 minutes or until most of the liquid has evaporated.

Serve the pasta warm and garnish with parmesan cheese.

This sounds like a great recipe if you’re in a rush – we ate a lot of pasta in our house so I’m sure this would go down well!
It’s perfect for a quick meal, and very little clean up since it’s all in one pot.
Pasta can be such a quick and easy meal but so delicious!
I agree, there are so many ways to make pasta!
I live off pasta but haven’t tried anything like this. Although, I have a teenager in the house, so I usually have to double recipes. Lol.
I have a feeling I will need to as my boys get to that age, too. Especially my younger son, he loves to eat!
This sounds so delicious! I never would have thought to boil the water off and would have been stressed about the flavors disappearing if I drained!
You would definitely lose a lot of the flavor if you drain this, but the boiling seems to work really well as the pasta absorbs a lot of it.
I love one pan recipes! Lazy cook right here! Gunna try this one out this week.
One pan meals are the best! Easy to cook and easy to clean.
Wow this is quick and easy!! Definitely need to try this out
You should, it’s such an easy meal since it’s all placed in one pot all at the same time.
This pasta looks easier than other pasta. and looks healthy! Yum <3
It really is that easy! And yes, lots of veggies so fairly healthy as well.
This is perfect for those hot summer days when we don’t want to hussle in the kitchen in order to enjoy a delicious hearty meal!
Yes, it’s absolutely great for warm nights when you still want a warm meal without heating the whole house up in the process.
I’ve never tried one-pot pasta without boiling the noodles separately. Perfect for easy cleanup!
That’s one of the many things I love about this recipe, it’s literally all thrown in at once and cooked. So easy!
I love the simplicity of this! Looks delicious!
Thank you! It’s such an easy meal with so much flavor when it’s done.
I have eaten pasta with tomato sauce once. It is a really delicious dish. These photos made me feel craving again :))
If you’re craving something like this, you should try it out. Trust me, the recipe is so quick and simple to make and doesn’t take long at all.
First I love Pasta and this recipe looks great. Great taste with less hassle.
It’s definitely a low-hassle meal. Throw it all in and let it boil!
That bowl of pasta has my name on it. Unlike my husband who prefers rice, I can have pasta every day, and this recipe has everything that I love.
I usually prefer pasta over rice as well! Rice is good for certain dishes, but if I have to pick it will almost always be pasta.
This looks SO good! Love that it’s made with vegetable broth. Definitely want to try this out!
Ever since I figured out how to make my own vegetable broth a year ago, I make a lot of meals with it and will use it in place of chicken or beef broth in a lot of recipes.
I mean, does it get any easier than this?! Sometimes the best dinners are the most simple.
I agree, and my boys like simple meals, too.
One pot recipes are my favorite! I have a dishwasher, but still hand wash the big stuff, so I love when I do not have much to wash. This looks so yummy.
I hand wash all of the big stuff, including all of our cookware, too. This makes such a little mess that it doesn’t take long to clean up at all.
What a great idea, I’ve never thought of this. I will be trying this soon, with a glass of wine!
While I don’t drink wine, my husband often has a glass with this meal, too!
I love pasta and can have it everyday (I had it today as well). Love your recipes! Thank you for sharing them 🙂
If you love pasta, then you should definitely try this one. Lots of flavor with very little effort! Just find someone to share with because it does make quite a bit.
