Christmas Pasta
Report
This Christmas Pasta is made with three popular sauces -- alfredo sauce, marinara sauce, and pesto sauce -- all tossed together with pasta. This Alfredo, Marinara, and Pesto Sauce Pasta is a surefire hit!

Ingredients
- 16 ounces marinara sauce (homemade recipe here or Rao's jarred)
- 11 to 15 ounces Alfredo sauce (homemade alfredo sauce recipe here)
- 4 to 6 ounces pesto sauce (homemade pesto sauce recipe here)
- 1 lb. fresh pasta (or pasta of choice)
- 1/4 cup freshly grated Parmesan cheese
Instructions
- In a heavy pot, heat water over high heat until boiling. Make sure to heavily salt the water which helps to infuse flavor into the pasta while cooking.
- Make the individual sauces -- alfredo, marinara, and pesto or heat up the jarred pasta sauces.
- Cook the pasta according to package instructions. I love to use fresh pasta in this recipe. Drain the cooked pasta and place it on a serving platter or shallow bowl.
- Place a layer of marinara sauce onto one side of the pasta, followed by alfredo sauce in the center, and pesto on the other side. I suggest using less pesto sauce than the other sauces since it has a strong flavor profile and you don't want it to overwhelm the other flavors.
- Toss the pasta sauces together when ready to serve and sprinkle with freshly grated parmesan cheese.

Notes
- If you don't make homemade marinara sauce, I suggest buying Rao's sauce.
- If you are going to make any sauce from scratch, I would suggest making the alfredo sauce from scratch. I have a great recipe!
- If you buy pesto sauce from the grocery store, I suggest buying it from the refrigerated section for fresher pesto.
