I’ve been making this dish for Kenya for several months but only now did I think of putting it on weelicious. Duh!! This is an amazingly quick, easy and tasty dish. I guarantee you’ll end up adding your own twist and wind up making it on a regular basis.
What could be more simple then eggs, pasta and cheese? Of course, for added flavor, color and nutrition I add the zucchini and sun dried tomatoes, but you could replace them with anything you have on hand to jazz the dish up. Even better, you can make a bunch of pasta, let it cool, add a splash of olive oil and keep it in the fridge for several days, so you can conveniently whip Pasta Wee One whenever you feel brain dead and can’t think of something warm and delicious to eat for lunch or dinner. And even better, no matter what shape of pasta you have on hand, it will work perfectly.
I made this for Kenya’s dinner and of course my husband took one sniff and asked if I would make it for him too. Luckily I had tons of leftover pasta and veggies in the fridge ready to go!

Pasta Wee-One
Ingredients
- 1 Cup Pasta, cooked (I used mini bow ties, but whatever kind you choose is great. Just follow cooking time on package.)
- 2 eggs
- 2 Tbsp milk
- 1/2 Tbsp butter
- 1/2 Cup Zucchini, shredded
- 1/4 Cup Sun Dried Tomatoes
- 2 Tbsp Parmesan (a cows milk cheese with a complex fruity/nutty taste) or Pecorino (a salty sheep’s milk cheese)
Instructions
- Whisk the eggs and milk in a bowl.
- Heat a large saute pan over medium heat. Add the butter.
- When the butter is melted add the zucchini and sauté for 1 minute.
- Add the pasta, sun dried tomatoes and then the egg mixture.
- Stir continually for 1 minute until the egg coats the pasta.
- Add the cheese and continue cooking another minute until the eggs coat the pasta and vegetables.
- Cool and serve.
I think I did something wrong, but I don’t know what, Mine came out really thick, and the eggs were barely visible. Maybe I mixed it together too much? Regardless, my son liked it and I’ll try to make it better next time. : )
This was good but turned out a little bland. Is there anything more to add to perk this up a little?
This is such a great simple and tasty recipe. I make it often for my toddler and it’s always gobbled up!
[…] myself. So I’ve been trying tons of new recipes out on them. Today for lunch I made them this… http://b12.ba4.myftpupload.com/2008/11/12/pasta-wee-one/ It was a big hit, they are still eating now but they both really like it, and it was really easy […]

I like your website. Nice, simple recipes. I never thought of mixing eggs with pasta…but sounds like a good idea.
I also write a blog on toddler nutrition. Feel free to check it out
