Spaghetti and meatballs....move over! Our cacciatore has a touch of curry powder, a secret ingredient in our rendition of this classic Italian dish. The end result is slightly earthy and full of warm comfort. Full of veggies, this family-friendly dish makes a great one-bowl meal for busy weeknights. Make it even faster by grabbing a rotisserie chicken and using the meat, cut chunky, to cut out a step. While the chicken and sauce simmer, cook your pasta and in minutes you are read to serve. If you do add a side, try some crusty bread to sop up the delicious sauce or a simple green salad for more vegetables and cool crunch.
