Sauté Aromatics: In a Dutch oven or high-sided skillet over medium-high heat, heat the olive oil. Add the minced garlic, diced onion, and rosemary. Cook for about 2 minutes until the aromatics soften and become fragrant.

Cook the Pasta: Once boiling, add the anelletti pasta to the pot. Stir frequently, ensuring the pasta doesn’t stick to the bottom, and cook according to package directions until al dente.

Finishing Touches: Remove the pot from heat and stir in the grated Parmesan cheese. This adds a creamy richness that elevates the dish.

YUM!!!!!
mmmm
I've been making homemade hamburger helper for almost a year now,and it's delicious, this is my next adventure. Love your videos!!!
I'm sick and tired of greater life. They are pedifiles
You can add some mini-meatballs, or sausage.
You can make this with just pantry ingredients. It's perfect for stocking up extra meals.
I have never cared for Chef Boyardee sauce.. If I could find the pasta O's I would make my own! 😉
Delicious 🤤😋
Ree I've never had Os are they like ravioli in a can or similar?
GHETTI'OS
No meat?
02:54 it looks so amazing … soup 🍲
The color is spot on! But I feel like it should have a pinch of sugar. I LOVED Spaghetti-Os and Franco American as a kid ❤
Spaghetti O’s were never my favorite food as a kid. More like the beef ravioli .
