And just like that, it’s again the most beautiful time of the year! Christmas is just around the corner, bringing with it the familiar hustle and bustle of last-minute preparations for festivities and gift shopping. While these tasks may seem daunting, there's a certain joy awaiting you and your loved ones once they are completed.
During the holiday season, one tradition that every household takes seriously is preparing their Noche Buena. While classic favorites like spaghetti, macaroni, and fruit salad are customary, why not expand your culinary repertoire and try something new for the family? You might just stumble upon a new favorite that adds a special touch to your celebration.
Pasta is a common ingredient in many celebratory dishes, thanks to its versatility and ability to complement a variety of ingredients. To enhance your Noche Buena menu, here are some elevated pasta recipes that you can prepare using a high-quality pasta brand such as El Real Pasta.
Here’s a double win for pizza and pasta lovers! This dish combines two beloved courses that kids, and even the picky eaters, won’t be able to resist. While it looks complex, this dish takes approximately 25-30 minutes to make. All you’ll need are El Real Elbow Macaroni, tomato sauce, quick-melting cheese, pepperoni, and ground beef. These are common ingredients for both pizza and pasta dishes. If you want to stretch the flavors, use dried oregano or basil for that extra kick. Season it as you like. Check the full recipe here.
We picture green, leafy veggies, tart fruits, and croutons when we think of salad. But not all salads have to be green. Some can be sweet, savory, and packed with protein, like the Grilled Chicken Salad. If you have some grilled chicken leftover from previous salusalos, this recipe is a great way to reuse and avoid unwanted food waste. Mix your leftover chicken with cooked El Real Elbow Macaroni, pineapple tidbits, raisins, hard-boiled eggs, and ham. You can zhuzh things up by customizing your own salad mix.

Here’s a no-fail recipe that your family will surely love: cheesy spaghetti. While it might not sound as unique as you think it is, you can make it your signature dish by using different ingredients. For instance, instead of using hotdogs, you can try to mix in diced Christmas ham to your dish for a different flavor experience. Make it more special by using El Real Sarap Bundle Pack (El Real 900g Spaghetti + 800g Sweet Style Spaghetti Sauce).
