I Made Padma Lakshmi’s $11 Pasta, And This Is A Win For Anyone With Tastebuds


For full transparency, I swapped out the pasta since I had a brand new box of it at home (purchased previously at the same price of $1.99), and made the choice to add dried thyme for $3.99 instead of a packet of fresh thyme that was priced at $1.99.

If I had purchased according to the pasta’s main ingredients, it would average to about $11, similar to Padma’s costs:

$1.99 for pasta

$1.99 for can of beans

$1 for 1 yellow onion

$1 for parsley

$2.99 for crumbled feta cheese

$1.99 for thyme

TOTAL: $11 + tax!

However, as Padma mentioned, this meal does serve up to 4! So technically, the cost per meal is around $3!
