Easy and quick to make, pasta is the perfect compromise for eating well without spending too much time in the kitchen, especially when you’re a little too lazy to start cooking.

Pasta recipes
Simple and quick to prepare, pasta can be accompanied by many seasonal vegetables – asparagus, spinach, zucchini, cherry tomatoes, mushrooms, eggplant – but also with proteins such as chicken, salmon, tuna, or tofu or cheese – mozzarella, parmesan, feta, gorgonzola. There are many easy-to-make recipes. If you opt for a sauce, with cheese for example, don’t forget to add a little cooking water to bind it well. A pesto to add to your pasta dish is also an excellent solution since it requires no cooking and all the ingredients are mixed together. Also think, obviously, of carbonara. Bolognese takes longer to make, so it’s up to you to decide whether to try this recipe. Shallot or garlic and lemon pasta will also delight the whole family. You can also do wonders with a simple tomato coulis or a little cream and cheese, and a few vegetables and leftover meat.
What can you eat when you’re lazy?
In addition to pasta, there are many dishes to enjoy when you are too lazy to cook. Think about toast, soups – hot or cold –, sandwiches, wraps and croques. Salads are also easy to make and delicious. Just like pasta, dishes with rice to which you add vegetables and proteins are succulent and can be prepared quickly, especially with what you have in your cupboards. Another quick meal idea: pies or an omelette.
How to cook undercooked pasta?
If after draining your pasta, you realize that it is not cooked enough, there is a fairly simple trick to recover it. Put them in a baking dish, add cream or sauce and put them all in the oven. You will have a delicious gratin of well-cooked pasta.
How to make up pasta?
If your pasta is too stuck, fix it like this. To remove them and give them the appearance you expect, immerse them in boiling water for a few moments (be careful not to leave them for too long). After draining them, add olive oil, butter or a garnish and all you have to do is enjoy.
