Believe it or not, every once in a while, I don’t really feel like spending a ton of time cooking. As a result, I’ve created a bunch of recipes I like to call 5-5-15 recipes. These dishes are what I consider to be 5-star quality made with only 5 ingredients and can be assembled in 15 minutes or less!
The first one I’m going to share with you is my amazing truffle butter pasta with parmesan!
Whenever I’m having guests over last minute or feel like something delicious, but don’t have the energy to cook, this pasta dish is my go to! It’s super easy to make and it’s simplistic flavor rivals any pasta dish you can order at any fine Italian restaurant.
It’s literally that simple and I easy you people will think you spent much longer putting this dish together. With the butter and the cheese, it’s almost like an upscale mac and cheese (but you can get it made in no time at all)!
Do me a favor, the next time you don’t feel like cooking, give this recipe a try and I bet you’ll crave it even when you do have the energy to cook!

OMG that looks SSOOOOOO good! At The Pampered Chef, we LOVE recipes that can be made easy and quickly to put weekday dinners on the table in a flash. I can already think of half a dozen PC products I would use to make this… 😉
