Sometimes, a date night at home can feel even more special than going out, especially when you’ve got a comforting bowl of pasta on the table. My Date-Night Rigatoni is exactly that, a dish that’s simple enough for a weeknight, yet indulgent enough to make the evening feel extra special.
The rigatoni is perfect al dente, tossed in a rich tomato sauce infused with garlic and just the right amount of heat. A sprinkle of fresh basil and a dollop of creamy ricotta add a beautiful contrast, both in texture and flavor.
What I love about this dish is how effortlessly it comes together without sacrificing taste. It’s one of those meals that make you feel like you’ve treated yourself, even if you’ve just whipped it up after work. This rigatoni pairs wonderfully with a light, fresh fruit salad or even a glass of Orange Juice. Give this recipe a try for your next date night in, I promise it’s worth it.

Helpful Tips For You!
Tip 1: Choose the Right Tortilla
For roll-ups, use large flour or whole wheat tortillas. They are more pliable and easier to roll than corn tortillas. If you want a gluten-free option, consider using rice paper or corn tortillas.
Tip 2: Egg Filling
Use fresh eggs for the fluffiest texture. Whisk them with a splash of milk or cream for added creaminess. Cook over low heat for even cooking, stirring gently.
Tip 3: Protein Options
Cooked bacon, sausage, or ham can elevate your roll-ups. Cook them until crispy, then crumble or chop before adding to the eggs. For a healthier option, consider turkey sausage or chicken.
