A real bounty of baked pasta recipes
Italian pasta is a highly oven-friendly ingredient, as I hope these baked pasta recipes prove.
These tasty treats make particularly good family feasts during the chilly winter months, as they are usually prepared by cooking the pasta and then coating it a sumptuous pasta sauce...
... this means these dishes are not only filling, but they hold their heat better out of the oven than many ‘pasta with sauce’ offerings.

‘In the ring’ baked pasta recipePacked to the brim with tomato and ricotta-layered tagliatelle, succulent eggplant and, if you like, fried meatballs or meat sauce, this is one of my mamma-in-law Marisa’s finest culinary creations. It takes a little while, but as ever the cooking steps are all simple and explained clearly.
Baked rigatoni recipe
Introducing this site’s first béchamel sauce offering. Perhaps the creamiest of these baked recipes, this dish features moreish belly bacon, short and buttery rigatoni pasta, a naughty calorie-carrying milk-and-cheese béchamel sauce and just a hint of woody nutmeg. I think you’ll love it.
Simple baked spaghettiA staple meal of my wife's 'nonna' (grandma), this tomato-focused dish is a cinch to make. Chop the ingredients, fry the toms, cook the pasta and throw it all in the oven - and out comes a tomato-heavy mound of crispy-topped pasta that’s nothing fancy... just mightily moreish.
Baked turkey tagliatelle recipe Perfect for using up leftover turkey after Christmas or thanksgiving, this easy-peasy baked tagliatelle recipe is a creamy meat treat, full of milky bechamel and the sumptuous texture of baked bird. (Don't have leftovers? Just fry up turkey from scratch - I explain how.) As this site is very much a work in progress, I’ll be adding more baked pastas soon. In the meantime, please let me know how you get on with these dishes.
