  • Creamy Cavatappi Pasta. This creamy cavatappi pasta recipe has a secret: it’s impossibly creamy but doesn’t have a single drop of cream! Instead of heavy cream, you’ll make a wonderful cauliflower sauce infused with six gloves of garlic.
  • Cavatappi Pasta With Basil Marinara. Why use bland red sauce from a jar when you can make your own in minutes? Homemade red sauce is a real game-changer on pasta night.
  • Pesto Cavatappi (Noodles & Company Copycat) Noodles & Company is a popular fast-food Italian restaurant known for its pesto cavatappi. It’s their most popular dish on the menu, and for a very good reason.
  • Cheesy Bacon Cavatappi Pasta. What I love most about this cheesy bacon cavatappi pasta casserole is that it’s easy and always a crowd-pleaser. For a double punch of bacon flavor, it combines cream of bacon soup with milk, Parmesan, and mozzarella cheese.
  • 3-Cheese Cavatappi. Nothing goes better with pasta (especially cavatappi pasta) than cheese. So, the next time you’re craving mac and cheese, give elbow macaroni the night off and swap it out for cavatappi.
