5 Best Domino’s Pasta Dishes To Order
For many of us, a late-night Domino’s pizza run is a writ of passage. But sometimes, you may just not want pizza, and luckily, Domino’s has a variety of pasta dishes available on the menu.
While Domino’s is one of the best pizza chains with many different pizzas, Domino’s pasta is surging in popularity. This is for a good reason; it is delicious!
Domino’s offers five pastas, including Chicken Carbonara, Italian Sausage Marinara, Pasta Primavera, Chicken Alfredo, and the Build Your Own Pasta option, which you can customize to your liking.
Since we’re all so used to ordering pizza, some people may not know the different types of pasta available at Domino’s.
In this article, we’ve compiled a list of all Domino’s pasta dishes, so let’s dive in!
Chicken Carbonara
When it comes to different kinds of pasta, not many people get in line for a dish like Chicken Carbonara.
Sure, it has things people enjoy, but it’s generally overlooked for some reason. Domino’s is fighting to change that.
The Chicken Carbonara at Domino’s is served with penne pasta, bacon, chicken, mushrooms, onions, and creamy Alfredo sauce that is worth trying.
And for those who might not love all the ingredients, you can customize by choosing “light” or “normal” portions of each ingredient. You can even get extra Alfredo sauce.
A dish of Chicken Carbonara counts for one portion size and is a filling of 640 calories.
If you’re looking for a Domino’s pasta dish to fill you up, go for this one.
Italian Sausage Marinara
For those looking for a strong flavor kick in their pasta, Domino’s Italian Sausage Marinara is a great option with a little bit of spice.
Be careful, though; after one portion, you’ll want to go back for more!
The Italian Sausage Marinara is made with penne pasta, Italian sausage (made with pork, vinegar, and paprika), seasonings, provolone cheese, and marinara sauce.
The marinara sauce is no ordinary red sauce, however.
Made with tomatoes, onions, Parmesan cheese, carrots, salt, and celery, this sauce might remind you of your mother’s home cooking.
Similar to the Chicken Carbonara, you can choose “light,” “normal,” or “extra” of all ingredients.
At 640 calories per dish, the Sausage Marinara adds a nice kick to a normally moderate dish.
Pasta Primavera
Just like with their pizza, Domino’s is trying to increase the accessibility of its menu by adding options for people with dietary restrictions.
For those who are vegetarian, the Pasta Primavera is a delicious choice for you.
This dish is made with penne pasta, green peppers, mushrooms, onions, tomatoes, baby spinach, and Alfredo sauce.
Although meat-free, the Pasta Primavera at Domino’s is not vegan-friendly.
As someone who isn’t the biggest vegetable lover, I enjoy customizing my meal by reducing the portion of spinach, onions, and peppers, but, of course, this is up to you.
At 550 calories, the Pasta Primavera is the healthiest on Domino’s pasta menu and probably falls among one of the overall healthiest dishes Domino’s serves.
Chicken Alfredo
If you’re someone who isn’t particularly adventurous with their food but enjoys delicious pasta, Domino’s Classic Chicken Alfredo is going to be one of your best choices, and for a good reason.
This dish is made with just three ingredients – penne pasta, grilled chicken, and Alfredo sauce.
Domino’s Alfredo sauce is made from the following ingredients:
- Water
- Cream
- Parmesan cheese
- Asiago cheese
- Margarine
- Butter
- Salt
- Garlic
Unfortunately, because the dish only has three ingredients, there aren’t many customization options. You can change the portion of chicken and sauce, but that’s it.
At 600 calories for one dish, the Chicken Alfredo is a worthy meal choice.
Build Your Own Pasta
Of course, as a pizza shop, Domino’s should have the option to make your own pasta using several different sauces and ingredient combinations. Evidently, Domino’s agrees.
The Build Your Own Pasta comes with penne pasta, but you can choose every other ingredient and how much of each is in the dish.
Below is a list of all of the ingredients you can use to build your own Domino’s pasta:
- Alfredo sauce
- Marinara sauce
- Pepperoni
- Brooklyn pepperoni
- Sausage
- Beef Crumble
- Ham
- Bacon
- Cheddar
- Feta
- Provolone
- Green pepper
- Jalapeno pepper
- Mushrooms
- Pineapple
- Onions
- Red Pepper
- Black Olives
- Philly Steak
- Tomatoes
- Green Olives
- Hot Peppers
- Baby Spinach
Calories per serving will change depending on the ingredients you choose, but typically, all pasta dishes are over 600 calories.
Conclusion
Though Domino’s is often known for its pizza, its variety of pasta dishes makes for a nice alternative to pizza. Often, deciding which pasta you want is the hardest choice.
Ultimately, the best option for anyone is the Build Your Own Pasta. You know what you like the best, so take that knowledge and make your new go-to dish.
However, if you want to try one of the pastas available on the Domino’s menu, Chicken Alfredo and Pasta Primavera are tasty choices.
