One Pot Creamy Spaghetti


  • Author: Carissa Shaw for Mom Needs Chocolate
  • Total Time: 20 minutes

Ingredients

Scale
  • 16 ounce box spaghetti (or angel hair)
  • 8 ounce block cream cheese, cubed
  • 1/3 cup grated Parmesan cheese
  • 1 24 ounce jar marinara sauce

Instructions

1. In a large pot, cook the pasta in boiling water according to package directions just until al dente. Drain the pasta in a collandar and set aside.

2. Pour the marinara sauce, Parmesan cheese, and cream cheese into the pot and heat on low for 5 minutes until the cream cheese is soft. *I recommend using a lid or splatter screen to prevent the sauce from splattering all over your stove.

3. Once the cream cheese is soft, use a whisk to stir the sauce until completely combined (may take a minute or two).

4. Pour the cooked spaghetti into the sauce and use tongs or a spaghetti spoon to stir well until the pasta is completely coated in the sauce.

Serve immediately.
