Tips:

  • Mise en Place: Before you start cooking, make sure you have all of your ingredients and equipment ready. This will help you stay organized and prevent any last-minute scrambling.
  • Choose the Right Pasta: Bow-tie pasta is a great choice for this recipe, but you can use any short pasta shape that you like. Some other good options include penne, rotini, or shells.
  • Cook the Pasta Al Dente: Don't overcook the pasta! Al dente pasta is still slightly firm to the bite and will hold its shape better in the sauce.
  • Use Fresh Vegetables: Fresh vegetables will give your sauce the best flavor. If you can't find fresh vegetables, frozen vegetables are a good substitute.
  • Don't Crowd the Pan: When you're cooking the vegetables, don't crowd the pan. This will prevent them from cooking evenly and will make them soggy.
  • Season to Taste: Be sure to taste the sauce before serving and adjust the seasonings as needed. You may want to add more salt, pepper, or herbs.

Conclusion:

This ham and cheese bow-tie pasta is a quick and easy meal that's perfect for a busy weeknight. It's also a great way to use up leftover ham. The creamy sauce is made with a combination of milk, cream cheese, and Parmesan cheese, and it's tossed with bow-tie pasta, ham, and vegetables. This dish is sure to be a hit with the whole family!
