I developed this one-skillet spaghetti and meatball dish to cut down on cooking time on busy nights. The beans, artichokes and tomatoes bump up the nutrition factor, while the lemon and parsley make it pop with brightness. —Roxanne Chan, Albany, California



Test Kitchen Tips
  • With one-pan pasta dishes, the sauce is always a little starchier than usual from cooking the pasta.
  • Because they are a major part of this recipe, high-quality crushed tomatoes are a must. It's worth splurging on San Marzano.
  • If your kiddos are squeamish about tomatoes, switch to two 14-oz. cans of diced tomatoes so the pieces are smaller.
