This Creamy Tomato Parmesan Pasta—aka pink sauce pasta—is a quick and indulgent dish made with pantry staples and lots of cheese. A base of butter, garlic, and tomato paste is blended with heavy cream to create the signature 'pink' hue, then enriched with both Parmesan and mozzarella. Fresh basil brings brightness, and a touch of reserved pasta water helps the sauce cling to every noodle. Comforting, cheesy, and incredibly satisfying—this recipe is an easy go-to for weeknights or cozy weekends.
