Quick Pasta with Meat Sause

Ingredients:

250 g pasta (your choice)

1 jar of ready-made meat sauce

1-2 cloves garlic (optional, minced)

1-2 tbsp olive oil

Salt (to taste)

Instructions:

1. Cook the Pasta:

Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil.

Add the pasta and cook according to the package instructions (usually 8-12 minutes).

Reserve 1/4 cup of pasta water before draining.

2. Prepare the Sauce:

In a skillet, heat olive oil over medium heat.

Add minced garlic and sauté until fragrant (30 seconds to 1 minute).

Pour in the ready-made meat sauce and heat through (3-5 minutes). Add a splash of the reserved pasta water to loosen the sauce if needed.

3. Combine:

Toss the drained pasta with the sauce in the skillet until well-coated.

Taste and adjust salt if necessary.

Serve immediately. Optional: Top with grated Parmesan cheese or fresh basil for extra flavor.
