I am always looking for ways to get things done quickly. I make lists, prep, skimp and do whatever I can to save time in an effort to get as much accomplished as possible each and every day.

I spotted the NEW Ronzoni 3 Minute Pasta at Publix a few weeks ago and was immediately interested. I am all about anything that will save me some time in the kitchen. So pasta that cooks up super fast is right up my alley. After all, pasta is on my menu at least once or twice each week without fail.

I grabbed a box and put it in my pantry as I knew it would come in handy. And, sure enough I needed it for a super fast pasta dinner. Basically the kind of meal that is necessary when you get home after 8 pm following a long swim meet—just pasta topped with a jar of sauce. It’s not my ideal meal…but on crazy days, you do what you gotta do, right?

I was a bit nervous as I have pastaholics and wasn’t sure what they would think.

Guys–the pasta was amazing! It was done in a flash but still had the taste and texture of regular pasta. It was crazy fast to prepare and still so very tasty. I immediately thought to myself….now, that’s a keeper.

I have great news if you have had your eye on the new pasta. It’s on sale as part of the new BOGO sale at Publix now through 12/17 (12/18 for some).

Ronzoni Pasta 10 to 16 oz box (Excluding Lasagna, Jumbo Shells, Cauliflower and Turmeric) BOGO $1.69 +

I knew the BOGO sale was coming and have been waiting patiently to stock up BIG time! You know I loaded my cart with lots of both the elbows and the penne varieties when I shopped this morning. It’s a can’t-miss deal at just 85¢ per box!

As I mentioned before, the pasta is amazing served simply with some jarred sauce. But, if you want to kick it up a notch, grab a few ingredients and whip up my 5 Minute Greek Chicken Penne. This is definitely my kind of meal. It has all of my favorite flavors but takes almost no time to make.

Take advantage of the deal and give the recipe a try and come back and let me know what you think!
