- 1 tbsp olive oil
- 1 medium yellow onion
- 2 cloves garlic
- 2 medium carrots
- 1 medium sweet potato
- 1 28 oz can canned diced tomatoes
- 4 cups vegetable broth
- 8 oz short pasta (e.g., penne, rotini)
- 1 tsp Italian seasoning
- 0.75 tsp salt
- 0.25 tsp black pepper
- 2 cups broccoli florets
- 0.5 cup heavy cream (or plant-based cream for vegan)
- 0.25 cup Parmesan cheese (optional, for serving)
- 2 tbsp fresh basil (optional, for garnish)
How to make Creamy Tomato & Sweet Potato One-Pot Pasta
- Heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil in a large pot or Dutch oven over medium heat. Add the diced yellow onion and sauté for 3-4 minutes until it becomes translucent and fragrant.
- Add 2 minced garlic cloves and 2 diced carrots to the pot. Cook for another 2-3 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the carrots begin to soften slightly.
- Stir in the 1 medium peeled and diced sweet potato, the entire 28 oz can of undrained diced tomatoes, and 4 cups of vegetable broth. Bring the mixture to a gentle boil.
- Once boiling, add 8 oz of your chosen short pasta, 1 teaspoon of Italian seasoning, 3/4 teaspoon of salt, and 1/4 teaspoon of black pepper. Stir well to ensure the pasta is submerged in the liquid.
- Reduce the heat to medium-low, cover the pot, and simmer for 10 minutes, stirring occasionally to prevent the pasta from sticking to the bottom. This allows the pasta to cook and absorb the flavors.
- After 10 minutes, remove the lid and stir in 2 cups of small broccoli florets. Continue to simmer, uncovered, for another 5-8 minutes, or until the pasta is al dente and the broccoli is tender-crisp.
- Remove the pot from the heat. Stir in 1/2 cup of heavy cream (or plant-based cream for a vegan option). The sauce will thicken as it cools slightly.
- Taste and adjust seasoning if necessary. Serve immediately, topped with optional grated Parmesan cheese and a sprinkle of fresh chopped basil.
