There’s something about pasta that just feels like home. Maybe it’s the warmth of the bowl, the steam rising up to meet you, or the way each bite slows you down enough to remember what matters most. For us, it brings back memories of kitchen counters dusted with flour, little helping hands, and big belly laughs while the sauce simmered on the stove.
So when it comes to celebrating Mom, the woman who somehow made dinner appear like magic night after night, pasta just feels right. This year, we’re serving up more than just recipes. We’re sharing moments, memories, and dishes inspired by our own kitchen growing up. Whether you’re planning an easy pasta dinner for Mother's Day or a full spread of special pasta recipes, we’ve got you covered.
Pasta Recipes with a Personal Touch
Every dish tells a story and these are some of our favorites for honoring the moms who made mealtime so meaningful.
One-Pot Pasta Primavera
Fresh, colorful, and full of springtime energy, this one-pot wonder is as simple as it is satisfying. It’s the kind of meal that says, “I love you” without requiring hours in the kitchen. Perfect for a Mother’s Day brunch or light dinner, and easy enough to cook with little helpers.
Roasted Butternut Squash Pasta with Creamy Walnut Pesto
Rich, earthy flavors meet a creamy walnut pesto for a dish that’s equal parts indulgent and nourishing. We love serving this one for cozy evenings at home when you want to treat Mom to something just a little more special. The sweetness of the squash pairs beautifully with the depth of the pesto.
Bruschetta Pasta
Inspired by the classic Italian appetizer, this dish is light, fresh, and bright. Think sun-ripened tomatoes, fragrant basil, and a touch of balsamic tang—all brought together with our rotini. This recipe is perfect for a sunny outdoor meal or a laid-back celebration.
Roasted Broccoli Garlic Pasta
Sometimes the simplest combinations are the most memorable. Roasted broccoli and garlic bring out a depth of flavor that’s both hearty and healthy. It’s an easy crowd-pleaser and a great dish to prepare when everyone wants to lend a hand in the kitchen.
Italian Pasta Salad
Planning a picnic or potluck-style celebration? This pasta salad adds color, crunch, and zest to your table. Packed with crisp veggies and tossed in a bold Italian dressing, it’s a make-ahead hero that lets you spend more time enjoying the day.
Pasta as a Love Language
Food made with intention has a way of saying what words can’t. These pasta dishes for special occasions bring comfort, celebration, and connection to the table. And honestly? That’s what we think dinner should always do.
Whether you're planning a surprise meal, cooking together, or simply setting the table for a quiet evening at home, these recipes are meant to help you create a little joy. And if you're feeling extra thoughtful, our Gift Set makes a perfect homemade pasta gift, from our farm to your kitchen.
