There’s a lot to love about Costco: great deals on bulk groceries, that iconic hot dog combo, and some seriously fantastic grab-and-go meals. In fact, there’s one returning dish that shoppers can’t get enough of right now: Italian Sausage Pasta in Garlic Wine Sauce.

A homecooked meal can go a long way—but let’s face it: we don’t always have the energy to cook up something delicious and nutritious for ourselves or our family, especially when busy weeknights come around. Luckily, Costco’s ready-made meals always deliver, and according to fans online, this Italian pasta meal is a stellar choice every time.

Costco's Italian Sausage Pasta in Garlic Wine Sauce

Costco's deli section has a wide range of ready-to-eat foods that come in big portions. From their iconic rotisserie chicken to macaroni and cheese and even taco kits, these convenient dishes make dinner easier than ever—and many are large enough to eat all week. The recent star of the show that customers keep raving about is a delicious Italian Sausage pasta.

My mouth is watering just thinking of this meal. It's made with orecchiette pasta, Italian sausage, tomatoes, spinach, shredded Parmesan, and garlic wine sauce. Yes, please!

 

"Woman feeling stressed out"

While I'd love to cook up a similar dish at home when I have the free time to do so, what's really enticing about this Costco meal is that all you need to do is cook it in the oven for about 50 minutes, and it's ready to be enjoyed.

And according to shoppers, this pasta certainly delivers on taste, too. In fact, one Facebook post says it "tastes like it came from an expensive Italian restaurant," and a Reddit user says it's a "staple for dinner every week."

Ready to try it for yourself? I know I am. You can grab it at your local warehouse for $5.49 per pound right now.
