The number of ingredients in a given recipe has nothing to do with the quality or flavor of the dish. The secret to preparing a delicious, seconds-worthy meal is to always use the highest-quality ingredients. Add love to whatever you're whipping up, and it’s guaranteed to be a culinary success! In one of my cooking classes (Sexy Chef), I taught my students how to make simple, flavorful dishes using only 5 ingredients. Say what you want, pasta just isn't pasta without cheese (unless it's a pasta recipe that incorporates seafood, which generally doesn’t call for cheese). This foolproof recipe brings together three different kinds of cheese (mascarpone, gorgonzola and Parmesan) for a balance of flavors that is simply out-of-this-world. I recommend you double this recipe because it's almost impossible to eat just one serving!

Ingredients

  • 1 pinch salt
  • 1 12-oz package tri-color spaghetti noodles (or the spaghetti of your preference)
  • 8 oz mascarpone cheese
  • 8 oz crumbled gorgonzola cheese
  • 1/2 bunch Italian parsley, chopped
  • 5 tablespoons grated Parmesan cheese

Directions

  • 1
    In a medium-sized pot, bring water with a pinch of salt to a boil. Add the package of spaghetti noodles and cook according to package directions (most pastas require approximately 10 minutes, cooked al dente).
  • 2
    While the pasta is cooking, in a separate, small pot, melt the mascarpone with the gorgonzola cheese over low heat.
  • 3
    Chop the parsley or cut it with kitchen scissors. Set aside.
  • 4
    Once the pasta is fully cooked, drain and return the pasta to the pot. Immediately mix with the creamy, melted cheese mix.
  • 5
    Plate and sprinkle grated Parmesan cheese and fresh parsley over the top of each serving.
  • 6
    Enjoy while hot!
