What Type of Pasta Should I Use?
We use whole-wheat rotini for this recipe, but feel free to use whole-wheat fusilli, penne, gemelli, cavatappi or any other short pasta. Shorter pasta is easier to stir during cooking and sticks less than longer-shaped pasta.
Is One-Pot Tomato Basil Pasta Vegetarian?
It can be! We recommend using low-sodium “no-chicken” broth, which is a vegetarian broth with a hearty, rich flavor. Look for “no-chicken” broth with the soups and broths in the natural foods section of most supermarkets. Feel free to use your favorite store-bought low-sodium vegetable broth or stock, or make your ownvegetable brothorvegetable stock. For a vegan version of the recipe, omit the Parmesan cheese and usenutritional yeastinstead.

Nutrition Facts(per serving)
- Daily Values (DVs) are the recommended amounts of nutrients to consume each day. Percent Daily Value (%DV) found on nutrition labels tells you how much a serving of a particular food or recipe contributes to each of those total recommended amounts. Per the Food and Drug Administration (FDA), the daily value is based on a standard 2,000 calorie diet. Depending on your calorie needs or if you have a health condition, you may need more or less of particular nutrients. (For example, it’s recommended that people following a heart-healthy diet eat less sodium on a daily basis compared to those following a standard diet.)
