  • 2 tablespoons mayonnaise or salad dressing
  • 1 package (12 ounces) frozen cooked spaetzle (4 cups)

Steps

  • 1
    Heat oil in 10-inch nonstick skillet over medium heat. Cook tomatoes and garlic in oil 5 to 7 minutes, stirring occasionally, until tomatoes are tender; reduce heat to low.

  • Spaetzle, a German side dish, are tiny noodles or dumplings that you can buy in the frozen foods section of the grocery store. For an even quicker side, toss the spaetzle with warmed bottled spaghetti sauce and add 1/4 cup half-and-half to make it rich and creamy.
