Tonight The Prince and I decided to shake up the lunch packing process and make rainbow pasta. So we gathered our supplies...
Pasta (we used shells)
Pots (the more you have the quicker you can make multiple colors)
Liquid food coloring
Spoon for stirring
Strainer
Next we put one cup of pasta in 6 bowls so The Prince could easily dump each bowl of pasta into each color.
Then we took our pots and put about 2 cups of water in each and then The Prince put between 4-8 drops of food coloring (depending on the color) into each pot. We boiled the colored water.
***we used two pots at a time***
Once the water was boiling The Prince dumped one bowl of noodles into each pot.
The noodles will cook and the colors will turn very bold.
Strain and rinse the noodles until the water runs clear.
Mix the noodles together in a dish and enjoy your rainbow pasta!
As the noodles cook you can add food coloring as needed to get the colors you want. Any sauce can be used, we chose Alfredo sauce which looked great. The Prince and The Princess enjoyed eating the noodles plain as well!
