    Julia, as noted to another reader above, you can definitely add the pasta to the skillet by following the original recipe, making it a true one pot meal. I personally like to cook it separately so I don t have to add too much excess liquid to the skillet. I m vegan and was wondering if this delicious sounding recipe could be made just skipping the meat altogether? If not, I could use boca burger pieces. And vegan cheese, of course. Thanks
